SUNDAY Times bestselling author Santa Montefiore will talk about her latest work during a special event in Wirral next month. 

The 'evening with Santa Montefiore' at Lingham's Bookshop in Heswall on June 17 (7pm) will feature a conversation about her new book Shadows the moonlight: A Forbidden Love: An impossible Choice. A book-signing will also take place.

It is the tale of Pixie Tate, who is summoned to the wild Cornish coast to unravel a curious mystery at the stately St Sidwell Manor, she knows that something quite extraordinary must be hiding in its shadows.

Over one hundred years ago, in the dark of night, a child vanished from his bed never to be seen again – and Pixie must now discover the truth of those final moonlit hours.

As she loses herself in the past, secrets are revealed, love affairs exposed and, ultimately, Pixie will be forced to make a devastating choice that will change her life forever . . .

Born in England in 1970, Santa Montefiore grew up in Hampshire and is the author of more than 30 novels, all of which have been Sunday Times bestsellers.

She is married to writer Simon Sebag Montefiore and they live with their two children, Lily and Sasha, in London.
