Clemmie is home in Cornwall, England, recovering from a love affair gone terribly wrong with the end result the loss of her employment and a trip around the world to escape this terrible situation. Now her younger sister has asked her to assist in bringing a young woman and her intended back together as the poor woman's father has imprisoned her. Clemmie can't say no to her sister, Holly, even when her gut feeling is to run away, fast. Holly can't turn her back on fellow reporter Emma McKellan, who's disappeared a week before her wedding. Clemmie agrees to help her sister and the favor turns into a crisis causing the whole family to end up in southern France.

Clemmie's mother is an actress, playing more roles in her daily life than on stage. Her father is the serious, quiet member of the family, while her brother is in love with someone and won't reveal her identity. The sister is a news reporter. Sam, a friend of the family for years, gets caught up in the fun. And just for good measure, their dog, Morgan, that likes to wet on things that don't move, and Norman, an injured seagull that's taken up residence in the family bathtub and a fancy pillow in the kitchen, add to this eclectic, amusing family.

Written in first person, SOCIETY GIRLS is a wonderfully entertaining story. Its fast pace and hilarious antics leave us smiling and laughing as we imagine ourselves contently sitting amongst the Colshannons at their family table, minus the dog at our feet and the seagull looking for fish to eat, of course, while they plot to solve this dilemma they've found themselves involved in. It's a great English story, and I guarantee you'll love each and every character.
