Cleasan a’ Bhaile Mhòir

Jessie is an aspiring actress who has moved to London to try to make a breakthrough into the big time but is finding the going tough. She has to work in a hotel to make ends meet and is about give up when she stumbles, with the help of her friend Curtis, on a novel way of using her acting talents for gain. Jessie’s series of imaginative ‘scenarios’, designed to help her clients through sticky patches in their lives, are brought alive vividly in this entrancing tale.

In Cleasan a’ Bhaile Mhòir, Catriona Lexy Campbell has created a wide range of interesting characters and their relationships, which she describes with humour and not a little insight. There are also exciting incidents which help carry the story along at a gripping pace. And underlying it all is a tender, understated love story.
