The Book of Tomorrow
Tamara Goodwin has always got everything she’s ever wanted. Born
into a family of wealth, she grew up in a mansion with its own private
beach, a wardrobe full of designer clothes, a large four poster bed
complete with a luxurious bathroom en-suite. She’s always lived in
the here and now, never giving a second thought to tomorrow.
But then suddenly her dad is gone and life for Tamara and her
mother changes forever. Left with a mountain of debt, they have no
choice but to sell everything they own and move to the country to live
with Tamara’s Uncle and Aunt. Nestled next to Kilsaney Castle,
their gate house is a world away from Tamara’s childhood. With her
mother shut away with grief, and her aunt busy tending to her,
Tamara is lonely and bored and longs to return to Dublin.
When a travelling library passes through Kilsaney Demesne, Tamara
is intrigued. She needs a distraction. Her eyes rest on a mysterious
large leather bound tome locked with a gold clasp and padlock. With
some help, Tamara finally manages to open the book. What she
discovers within the pages takes her breath away and shakes her
world to its core.
Told in Cecelia’s imitable style, The Girl of Tomorrow is a
mesmerising and magical story for this autumn.
