Springtime IN Surrey
|
|
The Odd Duck Society Jessamy Aubertine is too much for her university classmates, too little for her overstressed mum, and nothing in between. In an attempt to make herself useful, she takes on a spring holiday at her childhood home in Box Hill to sell the family's fading tea shop and somehow tell her mum that she intends to switch study plans. When mysterious letters signed by famous authors show up, can Jessamy and a pair of unlikely comrades find the writer behind the missives--and perhaps discover themselves as well? Or will their friendship fade with The Muses at the end of spring holiday? The Odd Duck Society is one of eight stories in Springtime in Surrey, a collection of vintage short stories set in the English countryside. |
