The Girl With The Red Ribbon (2015) - Plot & Excerpts
‘Forgive that nephew of mine. Jack is cheeky, and no mistake. Mind you, I’d be lost without him,’ she added. ‘He’s just started work at the Preventative Station here and is staying with me until he finds his feet. Now where was I?’ Flustered at having been caught out, Rowan turned her mind back to her duties. ‘Did you have anything particular in mind, madam?’ she asked, hoping her voice sounded normal. ‘I require a new bonnet for my great-niece’s christening,’ the woman said. ‘Something special then, madam?’ Rowan enquired, glancing at the examples on the stands. ‘It is actually Miss Richmond but please call me Camilla. I absolutely hate the title “Miss”.’ Rowan stared at the attractive woman in surprise, but she was still talking. ‘Now, I assume you need to know what I propose wearing. As it will be midsummer by then, I have a mind to shock Mother and appear in bright yellow,’ she said, laughing. ‘However, my sister would kill me if I turned up looking like a canary, so I’ll content myself with a more acceptable ensemble in mid-blue.’ ‘Your sister?’ Rowan asked, her mind still on the cheeky young man.
