Chapter of Echoes

by Aileen Armitage

Overview

This sequel to "Chapter of Innocence", which continues the story of Eva Bowe.
Away from her beloved from her beloved Yorkshire home, Eva Bower, whom we first met as an outrageous, enchanting nine year old in Chapter of Innocence, has embarked on her university career with a characteristic mixture of bluntness and vivacity, winning herself loyal friends � and an implacable enemy.
Eva and her friend Zoe Jacob celebrate freedom from study travelling through France. There they encounter the violent contrast of glamour and luxury and the nightmarish evils of terrorism.
Out of shared dangers blossoms new opportunities. Eva�s flair for business and Zoe�s individual sense of style make a potent combination as they launch Urchin, London�s most original clothes shop. Old friendships are tested, new loves found and Eva is increasingly perturbed by her feelings for the flirtatious and unreliable Alan Finch, a leading light in the bright new world of enterprise. But even as Eva grasps the rewards of success, past tragedies can�t be forgotten: her enemy waits in the shadows, obsessed with revenge.
In �Chapter of Echoes�, against a backcloth that sweeps from the moors of Yorkshire to the elegance of Paris and the excitement of fashionable early 1960s London, Aileen Armitage presents a courageous and unforgettable heroine in whom a strong belief in destiny combines with a very modern outlook.

As a child her father would take her to Lindley Moor, near Huddersfield, to show her the old family house and tell her stories about her grandfather who had owned a mill in the area. After studying German at Hull University she became a teacher. Unfortunately she had to give this up as she developed serious problems with her eye sight. Married with four young children, Helen, David, Paul and Annie.

She started writing late at night on a jotter with a felt tip pen. Aileen began writing and had many magazine articles and short stories published before she turned to longer fiction. Her first novel was accepted by a publisher and she was asked to write more books. She has since been widely published in the UK and in the USA. Aileen also lectures on novel writing for writers' seminars and is a regular broadcaster on BBC Radio. She is a frequent guest speaker, especially since winning UK Woman of the Year award in 1988.
