Little does she know just how much they will change her life… Inside envelope No 1 is money and instructions to buy a plane ticket. Inside envelope No 2 are directions to a specific London flat Inside envelope No 3 a note to Ginny says: Find a starving artist. And because of envelope No 4 Ginny and a man called Keith go to Scotland together, with somewhat disastrous – though utterly romantic – results.
