It was the last day of school term and, though nobody knew it except herself, an important day for Ruth. Tomorrow, when the holidays started, was the day when, guided by her friend, the author of The Mind and the Child, she would start her plan for freeing Paul's ego.
Worried about her son Paul, who's showing signs of complexes (or perhaps just being spoiled?), Ruth Tring consults a work of child psychology. When a film crew spots the boy at his school and a major director decides he should be a star, Ruth thinks it's just what the doctor ordered. But her husband and father-in-law would be dead set against it, so Ruth consults the wise matriarch of the family and manages to get Paul his close-up. But is it really the best thing for him? And will the family survive the resulting jealousies and upheavals? In this page-turning novel, we get an inside look at the British film industry, realistic family dynamics, and a healthy dose of savvy psychology.
Love in a Mist is the last of twelve charming, page-turning romances published under the pseudonym Susan Scarlett by none other than beloved children's author and novelist Noel Streatfeild. Out of print for decades, they were rediscovered by Greyladies Books in the early 2010s, and Dean Street Press and Furrowed Middlebrow are delighted now to make all twelve available to a wider audience.
