'Brilliant' Spectator
'A whip-smart comedy, chock-full with glamour, secret agents and sun-drenched
Californian orange groves – seriously, what could be more heavenly?' Saga
'A triumph' Financial Times
It is September 1940 and Evelyn Murdoch, a translator from the Postal Censorship
department, is uprooted from her home in wartime Woking and transferred to
Hollywood. She is to assist a mysterious British agent in his attempts to outwit
the Los Angeles German delegation and boost the British propaganda war effort.
The unhappy young widow is supplied with a new Californian wardrobe, a Bel Air
bungalow and her own desk in the writers' block of Miracle Studios.
At first bewildered by the glamorous excesses of this strange new world, she is
gradually seduced by the sunlight, orange groves and clever, fast-talking men.
But, just as she begins to blossom, her new technicolor ending threatens to slip
from her grasp.
