*******************************************************************
AFTER HEARTBREAKING TRAGEDY, CAN SHE FACE THE CHALLENGES OF HER NEW LIFE?
Petra is at an all time low when she is unexpectedly left a cottage in the tight-knit village of Mindon by an old friend of her mother's: her parents had been killed in a car accident, her boyfriend had decided to go back to his wife, and as a painter she led a solitary life in her North Yorkshire home town.
But she feels immediately at home in the gracious stone house that had been bequeathed to her, and is made welcome by the local residents - in particular, by the members of the Mindon Amateur Dramatic Society (somewhat appropriately known as MADS) presided over by the formidable Ursula. When Ursula decides to put on A Midsummer Night's Dream as the next production, Petra, to her surprise and pleasure, is put in charge of the wardrobe.
Rivalries, squabbles, love affairs and seething resentments threaten to scupper the production, but Petra has more pressing things on her mind...
A mystery from her past begins to haunt her - and the answer to that mystery might solve the puzzle of why she has been left such a beautiful house by a total stranger.
