Title: For the love of Willie
First published: 1998
Description: Peggy is turning a dark girlhood romance into a novel and is trying to get her fellow inmate at the mental hospital, known as "the Duchess", to read the manuscript. Frankly the duchess would prefer a Mills and Boon, but her friend's wartime tragi-comedy soon gets a grip on her imagination.
