The Birthday Present by Pamela Oldfield
An engaging historical tale from a much-loved author - London, 1890. Singer Rose Paton is confident that, with her looks, youth, and talent, she's destined for greater things. When mysterious stranger Marcus Bennley asks her to sing at his sister's birthday party, as his present to her, she accepts for the half a guinea - more than two weeks' wages. But will the deal be quite so sweet as promised, or has Rose made a terrible mistake entangling herself with the Bennleys?
Oldfield, Jenny: - Born and brought up in Harrogate, Yorkshire, Jenny Oldfield went on to study English at Birmingham University, where she did research on the Bronte novels and on Children's Literature. She then worked as a teacher, before deciding to concentrate on writing. She writes novels for both children and adults and, when she can escape from her desk, likes to spend time outdoors. She loves the countryside and enjoys walking, gardening, playing tennis, riding her horse Merlin and traveling with her two daughters, Kate and Eve.
