The year is 1944, and seventeen-year-old Rosa Edwards, a pit miner's daughter from Merthyr Tydfil in South Wales, has just secured the position of royal maid in Buckingham Palace, against all the odds. Setting off to London with nothing but a suitcase and a determination to track down her best friend Alice, Rosa's new life is soon anything but quiet, when a scandal involving Alice makes sensational front-page news and Rosa must face up to accusations of dishonesty. Against the odds, will Rosa survive the bright lights of Buckingham Palace, and make her big break a new life?About the Author
Annie Seymour is a historical fiction writer who lives in Cambridgeshire and is at her happiest when she is researching and writing true untold stories about women's lives, combined with anecdotes about our royal family whose lives continue to fascinate. Annie was a former journalist and started writing women's features for her local newspaper at the age of sixteen. She believes the skills she learned then equipped her with an endless curiosity and fascination for people's lives that will remain with her forever. Her new Secrets of the Royal Maids series is inspired by Rosa Edwards, a poor pit miner's daughter from Merthyr Tydfill in the Welsh valleys who in real life became a royal maid during WWII.Dimensions (Overall): 8.0 Inches (H) x 5.0 Inches (W)
