Presenting a dazzling new historical novel … The Girl From The Savoy is as sparkling as champagne and as thrilling as the era itself. ‘Sometimes life gives you cotton stockings. Sometimes it gives you a Chanel gown …’

Dolly Lane is a dreamer; a downtrodden maid who longs to
dance on the London stage, but her life has been fractured
by the Great War. Memories of the soldier she loved, of
secret shame and profound loss, by turns pull her back and
spur her on to make a better life.

When she finds employment as a chambermaid at London’s
grandest hotel, The Savoy, Dolly takes a step closer to the
glittering lives of the Bright Young Things who thrive on
champagne, jazz and rebellion. Right now, she must exist on
the fringes of power, wealth and glamor—she must remain
invisible and unimportant.

But her fortunes take an unexpected turn when she
responds to a struggling songwriter’s advertisement for a
‘muse’ and finds herself thrust into London’s exhilarating
theatre scene and into the lives of celebrated actress,
Loretta May, and her brother, Perry. Loretta and Perry may
have the life Dolly aspires to, but they too are searching
for something.

Now, at the precipice of the life she has and the one she
longs for, the girl from The Savoy must make difficult
choices: between two men; between two classes, between
everything she knows and everything she dreams of. A
brighter future is tantalizingly close—but can a girl like
Dolly ever truly leave her past behind?
