Books by Gaynor Arnold

Girl in a Blue Dress
The marriage of Charles Dickens is the inspiration for this novel which charts its disastrous course through the eyes of his widow. However, the author has changed all the names and transposed events and relationships to give herself the imaginative freedom to provide an insight into how a once adored wife came to be put aside in favour of her sisters and an enigmatic actress. Sounds like a potboiler? It's far better than that.
