"We start the book with Bobbie running away to Ireland to escape the media storm which has accompanied her affair with a married Tory MP. Here there’s a problem with narration. An agreeable man looks after her on the unpleasant ferry crossing, then offers to drive her to the castle where she’s accepted a job as housekeeper"

This sounds horribly like the story of one of my forebears - except, for ferry crossing, substitute railway, and fior castle, substitute rather grand mansion

Great review! Trying to track down Clouds Among the Stars via the library, but feel I can wait for this one.

Thanks! I've now moved on to A Girl's Guide to Kissing Frogs Bobbie plays a small part in that, as well.
