And I’m delighted that one of my own stories features in it too.  It’s called Mummies and Daddies and is about a children’s writer who gets a second chance at love in the mummy rooms of the British Museum.  If you’ve read Molly’s Millions, you’ll realise that the British Museum is a favourite setting of mine!
