An enjoyable coming of age story – through central character, Trish, the author chronicles her life and career at a time where there were emerging possibilities of a profession and independence for modern women. The narrative seamlessly moves between London and Sydney in the fabulous late 1960s as the main character builds her life around the Law and business with a smattering of politics just to spice things up.
With plenty of twists and turns, we follow Trish through good and bad times, love and loss, with some hilarious antics that give us a taste of life in London in the swinging 60s, it wasn’t hard to develop an empathy for her and her family and friends. I was rooting for her from the side lines as she gains in experience and confidence in the tough world of business – she’s smart, sassy and can mix it with the big boys!
With a fast-moving narrative and accessible language we are transported to this vibrant time and place. Trish’s story isn’t over and I’m keen to see what’s in store for her in a sequel.
