Lorna Hill - Born: Lorna Leatham 21st February 1902, Durham, - Died: 17th August 1991 (89), Keswick, Cumbria. With the death of her father, fourteen year old Veronica Weston is suddenly uprooted from her life in London and the ballet classes she loves so much. The prospect of a new life in the north of England seems to shatter her dream of becoming a great dancer.
But on the train to Northumberland she makes a friend who has a secret wish of his own. In the adventures that follow, Veronica realises that it will take all her determination to succeed in the rigorous world of ballet - and that begins with running away from home. Sadlers' Wells Series:
