Chapter of Echoes

This sequel to "Chapter of Innocence", which continues the story of Eva Bowe.

Away from her beloved from her beloved Yorkshire home, Eva Bower, whom we first met as an outrageous, enchanting nine year old in Chapter of Innocence, has embarked on her university career with a characteristic mixture of bluntness and vivacity, winning herself loyal friends and an implacable enemy.

Eva and her friend Zoe Jacob celebrate freedom from study travelling through France. There they encounter the violent contrast of glamour and luxury and the nightmarish evils of terrorism.

Out of shared dangers blossoms new opportunities. Eva's flair for business and Zoe's individual sense of style make a potent combination as they launch Urchin, London's most original clothes shop. Old friendships are tested, new loves found and Eva is increasingly perturbed by her feelings for the flirtatious and unreliable Alan Finch, a leading light in the bright new world of enterprise. But even as Eva grasps the rewards of success, past tragedies can't be forgotten: her enemy waits in the shadows, obsessed with revenge.

In 'Chapter of Echoes', against a backcloth that sweeps from the moors of Yorkshire to the elegance of Paris and the excitement of fashionable early 1960s London, Aileen Armitage presents a courageous and unforgettable heroine in whom a strong belief in destiny combines with a very modern outlook.
