Running Away

WOMAN ON A TIGHTROPE

Isabel Gary. 40 years old. Beautiful. Talented. And tormented...

... by the memory of a husband who had died so tragically early... by the problem of a teenage daughter hellbent on a course of self-destruction ... by the demands of a lover who grows less ideal with every encounter... by the mounting pressures of a job that thrusts her into a TV world of sudden success and cutthroat competition... by the magnetism of a man to whom Isabel fears surrendering lest her hopes be betrayed once again...

Here is Charlotte Vale Allen's most enthralling novel --the story of a woman who must somehow find the courage to listen to the hungers of her heart, and to reach out for all that life and love can offer in her search for happiness.
