Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Bright Spark is historical/literary fiction.Its blurb:While trapped in the stuffy confines of bourgeois Thorny Grove, Simone finds her life is filled with strangers. She really does not know anyone - not her new husband, not her only 'friend', and least of all herself.It is not long, however, before her husband's exploits lead her to the Queen's Head Public House and Hostelry, and a discovery of the controversial trade being plied there. While wearing her detective's cap and investigating his underhand conduct, she finds two improbable comrades that give her the strength to make a daring escape from the clutches of convention.Her old life upended, Simone finds herself drawn to the intrigues of political action. Soon she finds a new sense of self while navigating scandal, judgment, and her own deepest fears.With another unconventional take on the interwar period, Bright Spark has hints of the detective story blended with period piece motifs. It delivers eccentric characters and offbeat scenarios as it advances towards a surprisingly upbeat closing.
