Travel Guide

Greenwood Boarding School, England (fictional of course)

A boarding school can be a small and tight knit affair. A pressured, environment for many and overly competitive in many ways. Many thrive and for some the bonds and friendships they make here can last a lifetime or change your life for ever.

Boarding school is unique in the fact that you can’t ever really escape your friends and fellow pupils. You study together, sleep in close quarters, spend your free time together,and form an impression of life inside a bubble..Josephine and Freya and trapped in one place, with a bond which will pull them together and thrust them apart.

An all girls boarding school can be fraught with tensions, high, high tensions, petty jealousies and act like a magnifying glass on the minutiae of life . The expectation of the girls there is to go to Oxford and the path is all laid out in front of them. If they decide to take it, that is.

Amman

Josephine has been in Amman, Jordan for many years. She’s based there now and it’s where the story opens and where the intrigue starts to unravel..
