More about the book

One day in her late fifties, Fiona Lewis wakes up and asks herself, Is this it? Ostensibly, her life has been full of adventure and privilege: London and Paris in the '60s, Los Angeles in the '70s. Nevertheless, she feels lost. Realising she has to find a way to reinvent herself, she impulsively buys a ruined chateau in France. Alone in the depths of the countryside, Lewis reflects on her glamorous youth across London and Paris in the 60s, Hollywood in the 70s, and the important, sometimes disastrous, choices she made along the way.
