An abandoned baby girl, a secret, the story of survival - international bestselling author Penny Vincenzi's SHEER ABANDON is the story of one desperate act, and the consequences that follow... '

Like a glass of champagne: bubbly, moreish and you don't want it to end' Daily Express

One night in 1986 an abandoned baby girl is found in a cupboard at Heathrow airport...
A year earlier Martha, Clio and Jocasta had met by chance, at the start of a backpacking adventure: they travelled together briefly and then went their own ways, swearing to meet again when they return home. But it would be a long time until they met again: not until Kate, the foundling, is a teenager, and all three are leading successful lives. Martha is a single, highly paid lawyer, Clio a doctor, locked in an unhappy marriage, and Jocasta a reporter, in love with a charming commitment-phobe.

Which of them is Kate's mother? Why was she desperate enough to do such a thing, and how did she survive it?
