Review of  Veronica Henry’s ‘Love On The Rocks’ from The Evening Standard (3rd July 2006)

‘Have you ever longed to ditch the rat race, escape to the seaside and open a hotel? Love on the Rocks will make you want to quit your job and start packing. Skeletons tumble out of shabby-chic cupboards and star-crossed lovers get their sandy knickers in a twist.....’

Love On The Rocks‘, was published on 6 July 2006. It’s a perfect summer read, so pour yourself a Sea Breeze, flop into your deckchair and escape to the seaside village of Mariscombe to find out what happens when George Chandler and his girlfriend Lisa buy a rundown boarding house, hoping to turn it into a chic maritime retreat …

600ml cranberry juice

'Death by Sushi' Fish can kill me. When I was very small (maybe 3 or 4 years old) my grandfather, who lost the sight of one eye from a bullet fired by a German sniper (fortunately not a very good one) during the Battle of the Somme in World War 1, wiped my face with the corner of his apron, an apron he had used to wipe his filleting knife on. He was a grocery shopkeeper who specialized in wet fish.
