Publisher's Synopsis
When shy, inhibited Avril Buckman leaves her dull grey life in Ballantrae in the south-west of Scotland to set out on a journey of discovery to the Cotswold village of Little Maidswell, little does she know how completely her life will change. For when she joins the 'Flamingo Follies' her mind is thoroughly blown by the glittering array of burlesque dancers she meets there. Inspired by Flamingo Frolixx, Gabi La Luna, Ruby Peril and Vesta Firebrand, and guided by Frou-frou Fevre, Babette Bijou, and the spirit of the late great Loie Fuller, Avril's burlesque talents flourishand her true personality gradually emerges into something truly magical.
