Sheer Abandon by Penny Vincenzi
An abandoned baby girl, a secret, the story of survival... 'Like a glass of champagne: bubbly, moreish and you don't want it to end' Daily Express One night in 1986 an abandoned baby girl is found in a cupboard at Heathrow airport. A year earlier Martha, Clio and Jocasta had met by chance, at the start of a backpacking adventure: they travelled together briefly and then went their own ways. Years later, when Kate, the foundling, is a teenager, and all three women are leading successful lives, they meet again. Martha is a single, highly paid lawyer, Clio a doctor, locked in an unhappy marriage, and Jocasta a reporter, in love with a charming commitment-phobe. Which of them is Kate's mother? Why was she desperate enough to do such a thing, and how did she survive it? Penny Vincenzi's SHEER ABANDON is the unputdownable story of one desperate act, and the consequences that follow...
