Children of Chance by Elizabeth Pewsey

Cleo Byng and Prue Pagan are good friends who could not be more different. Prue, brought up by a zealously religious aunt, is an innocent and inclined to be self-effacing. Cleo, raised by her artist mother, is extrovert, street-wise and bent on having fun - preferably with men. Now, having left school, they both take joliday jobs in the same village in northern England; Prue to help Lady Mountjay at the castle, Cleo to work at Midwinter Hall for a world-famous cellist. But despite the apparent social fluency of affairs between castle, hall and village, nothing and nobody are quite what they seem, and before the summer is out, Prue is not the only one wise in the ways of the world.
Elizabeth Pewsey was born in Chile in 1948 and educated in Calcutta, London and Oxford. She worked as a civil servant and publisher, and for the last few years has written text books for Oxford Unversity Press and publishers in Holland and Germany. She lives in Somerset with her husband and their son, a choirister at Wells cathedral, and daughter.
