From the Back Cover:
From a decaying country house in Ireland to bohemian Paris, a beautiful girl called Tiger captivates all hearts...
About the Author:
When a third daughter was unexpectedly born to Alice Fitzgerald, heiress of the great house of Neill's Court in the west of Ireland, she called her Tiger. Her husband, astonished and dismayed by the baby's arrival, took himself off to Italy, never to return. Tiger had to endure the resentment of her two elder sisters, who were jealous both of her presence and of her extraordinary and lively beauty.
By the time Tiger was eighteen, life at Neill's Court had become almost unbearable. Poverty, illness and isolation had caused Alice to become an invalid and Tiger knew that she had to escape. She found her way to Paris, where in the strangely civilised household of the redoubtable Comtesse de Martel-Cluny she blossomed into an artist and discovered the richness and glory of a bohemian life. But always at the back of her mind was Neill's Court and the Irish countryside where she had been born and bred - even though she knew that her destiny lay far away.
Elizabeth Falconer is the author of The Golden Year, The Love of Women, The Counter-Tenor's Daughter, Wings of the Morning, A Barefoot Wedding and Frost at Midnight. She lives in Gloucestershire.

Editorial Reviews From Publishers Weekly Elizabeth Falconer 's Tiger Fitzgerald follows the coming-of-age of the youngest and most beautiful of three Irish sisters. Their father flees to Ita ly, leaving their mother and the estate to fall into decline; whe n strong-willed Tiger turns 18, she goes to Paris. Taken in as an au pair by the well-to-do, old Comtesse de Martel-Cluny, she dis covers art and, shortly thereafter, sex and the bohemian life. Sh e drifts from affair to affair, dreaming of true love and the lif e she left behind in Ireland. Falconer (Frost at Midnight) has a graceful writing style, which puts this above similar romantic of ferings. Copyright 2002 Cahners Business Information, Inc. </di v. Seller Inventory # 2035q
