Description

Aberystwyth University, 1986 and another year of torrential rain.

Bad hair days and a rugby-fanatic fiance are part of her drab existence so who can blame Karen for falling into the arms of a handsome Parisian?Hastening across The Channel with stars in her eyes, she speeds to the city of light only to discover that her lover is nowhere to be found.

Nor what he seemed. Life takes a turn for the better when her old school-friend Jessica makes a dramatic entrance, encouraging Karen on a downward spiral of adventure - including a brush with the Parisian underworld which places both girls in peril. Karen's childhood is a constant anguish reminding her that when things go wrong, not everyone has a home to return to, as the dark shadows of the past merge with her troubled French life. Where to go, when there's no going home?Based on a true story, A Stranger in Paris is the first of a three-part series.

This honest memoir recounts with humour and poignancy the search for love and family.
