''Gibbons is superb on middle class life'' SAM JORDISON, GUARDIAN ''A sharp-edged romantic comedy, we have a chance to see what we''ve been missing'' DAILY MAIL ''What luxury to stumble upon this quirky book, and the fascinating modern woman who wrote it'' SOPHIE DAHLLife is not quite a fairytale for poor Viola. Left penniless, the young widow is forced to live with her late husband''s family in a joyless old house. There''s Mr Wither, a tyrannical old miser, Mrs Wither, who thinks Viola is just a common shop girl and two unlovely sisters-in-law, one of whom is in love with the chauffeur. Only the prospect of the charity ball can raise Viola''s spirits - especially as Victor Spring, the local prince charming will be there. But Victor''s intentions towards our Cinderella are, in short, not quite honourable . . .
