    About the book: 2005 / The timeless story of Cinderella - this time about a girl whose youth fell in the late 60s of the last century, the famous hippie era... After the mysterious death of her mother, Camellia Norton finds a folder with old letters and learns that her entire life was built on lies. The girl goes to London, hoping to start a new life. The heroine is drawn into the chaotic life of the streets and nightclubs of the metropolis, but she manages to survive and even settle down. However, the ghosts of the past do not let Camellia go. Losing friends and family, risking her life, she tries to find out the truth about her origin and, ultimately, find herself and become happy.

There was a time when I was ready to go barefoot to the ends of the earth for her sake. But this is already in the past. Even dead, she manipulates us like puppets. Don't let her do this, Camellia. Think about yourself…
