The first from watching a Michael Palin documentary which involved him taking a night train to Marrakech; the second from her discovery that Yves Saint Laurent was living there in the 1960s, hence her decision to make Vicky a young fashion designer . Dinah is the queen of sumptuous settings, transporting the reader effortlessly from chocolate-box Devonshire to the cabaret clubs of 1920s Paris and war-torn Malta.

Vicky Baudin steps onto a train winding through Morocco, looking for the grandmother she has never met. Plus, you’ll have a slightly reclining seat, extra legroom (when compared to second-class), and power outlets.

The story is quite fast paced, set in post-war Morocco and involves murder, a disappearance and romance. Exploring the beautiful country of Morocco and looking for ways to get from Marrakech to Fes (also spelled Fez)? The third in the Daughters of War trilogy, this gripping, page-turning and dramatic novel brings the colour, atmosphere and sun-baked walls of 1960s Marrakech vividly to life – and the wild arid desert and mountains that surround it.Es dreht sich hier zwar im groben um eine Familie, aber wenn ich das richtig verstanden habe, hat jede Generation ihren eigenen Band bekommen, und die Hauptdarstellerinnen aus Teil 1 aus dem Jahr 1944 tauchen hier 1966 auch wieder auf, sind aber mittlerweile keine jungen Mädchen mehr, sondern die Mamas von Bea und Vicky.
