London Holiday Horror Book Review

The perfect beach read and armchair travelogue—a wry, engaging, stylish novel of three women’s escape into carefree London. 

London Holiday opens in Mrs. Smith-Porter’s cozy, prestigious London bed-and-breakfast, where the hotelier curiously awaits her three new American guests…

Best friends since long-ago childhood days, Lesley, a St. Louis society matron and do-gooder, Julia, a successful but lonely Manhattan interior designer, and Margo, a newly-divorced Chicago teacher with a teenage daughter, are all harboring unfulfilled dreams and desperate for a change from their ordinary lives. When a shocking act of violence reminds them how fragile life really is, the three friends decide it’s time for a reunion and embark on a long-awaited trip to London. 

Safe in the confines of Mrs. Smith-Porter’s bed-and-breakfast, the women enter a whirlwind of tea in the garden, antique markets, picture-perfect countryside and ...romance. For each of them, the London holiday holds many surprises and “the epiphanies [they] experience pour over readers with the light, dry sparkle of good champagne” (Publishers Weekly).
