The Garnett Girls

Georgina Moore grew up in London and lives on a houseboat on the River Thames with her partner, two children and Bomber, the border terrier. The Garnett Girls is her first novel and is set on the Isle of Wight, where Georgina and her family have a holiday houseboat called Sturdy.

Georgina’s debut novel is set on the Isle of Wight and asks the question whether children can ever be free of the mistakes their parents make. Forbidden, passionate and all-encompassing, Margo and Richard’s love affair was the stuff of legends – but ultimately, doomed. When Richard walked out, Margo locked herself away, leaving her three daughters, Rachel, Imogen and Sasha, to run wild. Years later, charismatic Margo entertains lovers and friends in her cottage on the Isle of Wight, refusing to ever speak of Richard and her painful past. But her silence is keeping each of the Garnett girls from finding true happiness.
