Travel Guide

Stand Up Mam

A novel with a North East focus with a keen visit to Edinburgh for the comedy festival that runs through the entire story. There is a brief sejour in London – to St James’ Park to be precise, where Georgie and Jaz learn how to dance the tango.

Lovely to see the North East celebrated in another fine story! The author is from the North East too so it’s a nice homage to home.
