From wartime England to modern day London, via New York, Berlin and Vietnam, in the midst of parties, scandals and conflict zones, and of course, meeting many men along the way, Ruby Devereaux has lived one hell of a life. And in a writing career spanning seven decades, she’s poured it all into her work.
But now in her 80s, Ruby’s life has slowed down, and her typewriter has been put away. Until a call from her publisher persuades Ruby she has one more book in her. Her agent Marina is under no illusion that Ruby is writing her memoirs for the money ... but even now, Ruby has the power to surprise – and whatever Ruby does, she does on her own terms.
But is she really about to reveal the secrets of her infamous life?
In it, Beech looks back on the events that led to the day her mother wrote down her last words, then jumped off the Humber Bridge. She missed witnessing the horror herself by minutes. Louise recounts the pain and trauma of her childhood alongside her love for her siblings with a delicious dark humour and a profound voice of hope for the future.
