Cinco De Mayhem (2016)
“We sipped peach-chamomile tea and went to bed before eleven, Linda tucked in with Hugo in Celia’s bedroom. I hoped they both slept more peacefully than me.

Visions of croissants, pain au chocolat, and custard buns filled my head until replaced by a picture of svelte, athletic Brigitte. She wouldn’t let a breeze and a few gray clouds hold her back.MoreLess
