Book Description
Pippin Pearmain has traded her placid existence in Lemonwood Cottage for a flurry of activity. There’s a ballet to demonstrate, and a crowded visit to Sydney where she makes an agreement with a man who can turn into a dog. She facilitates a proposal and fossicks on the beach for a special gift for her oldest friend. Her newest friend is on the horizon, and a book from the past will soon be making a comeback. The decade-long lull in Pip’s life ended when she reconnected with her cousins, only to lose Cousin Lupin all over again. Since then, Lupin’s legacy continues to bring forth wonders. Her lack of family still troubles her, but now there is a way to leave a legacy for the future anyway. A return to Delphinium Island brings reunions all over again. Mysteries abound, and some of them will slowly unwind to reveal a story that’s been generations in the making. Pip learns that not every question has a clear answer for now. Maybe that’s a good thing. As Pip herself says, everyone should have some magic and mystery in their lives.

Book Description
Pippin Pearmain is having the time of her life. After ten years of solitary peace interrupted only by cats and recalcitrant lemons, it’s all systems go for Pip. Her first film role in a decade is about to premiere, and she’s expecting a new companion and the launch of a family treasure. The next festival, Tales in Tune, is underway, and Pip’s dancing troupe, the newly named Pippinalia, expects her to pull something special out of her hat. So—no filming this time, but no leisure time either! Her old friend Tamzin’s suggestion that the festival is a good venue for launching the newly reprinted book Grandmother’s Sunshine has metamorphosed into a giant day-long affair with multiple titles by multiple authors. With ten minutes to make an impression and a veil of playful secrecy, authors and their minions are creeping around in corners, rehearsing their pitches. Pip and her cousins are no exception, but luckily they have Dirk, the Hot Unicorn, in their corner. Grandmother’s Sunshine is to be released, but that’s not all. There’s the new ballet, Caprice, an inexplicable midnight visit from the original cat, a silver pin…and Pip’s understanding of her reality is tossed up like a salad. When the dust settles, everything is changed—except for Pippin Picotee Pearmain. She’s still going strong, and she’s sure she’s better than ever!

Book Description
Eccentricity is Pippin Pearmain’s lifelong stock-in-trade. She used to be a niche-market performer, but at sixty-six, she hasn’t worked in a decade. That doesn’t matter to Pip. She has her cosy life at Lemonwood Cottage, an interesting friendship with Mister Clancy next door, walks on the beach and occasional stoushes with the officious and the annoying. She enjoys her regular ballet practice, and her daily battle with the bad-tempered lemon tree in the garden. Pip has two cat companions, and if they choose to communicate with her in Cat-Morse about things no cat should be concerned with, well—no one else needs to know. Above all, she has her green-penned bucket list. That is unique. An impulsive trip to her old hometown stirs memories for Pip when she meets her cousins Juniper and Lupin at the Delmsford Flower Show. Over a nostalgic afternoon tea provided by the Lilac Ladies in their retro-pinnies, Pip shares a long-held secret with her cousins and is given their secrets in return. Jan’s secret is fun. Lupin’s secret will be turning Pip’s life upside down…but not quite yet. First, she has to negotiate the flower show… shuffle her place in the family pack and accept the unexpected gift of Lupin’s cat.

Book Description
Pip hasn’t worked in a decade when her new agent calls unexpectedly. A movie role is on offer, and Magda Quest Saxer wants an answer in less than a week. She gives Pip an implied ultimatum. Take it and fly to Sydney for a screen test. Turn it down it and never work again. With no one else to advise her, Pip consults the cats. Kittisack and Amberjill are probably real. Lupin’s cat is made of pottery. All of them think she ought to take the role. This disruption is bad enough, but Cousin Lupin’s legacy is confusing. Pip risks a call to ask what it’s all about, and within the hour she’s off on a magical mystery tour on a yacht crewed by people she doesn’t know. It’s bewildering stuff, especially when one of the crew goes missing and the other two don’t seem to care. Pip cares but dialling triple zero has its complications when someone nearby can make the phone jump right out of her hand.

Pippin Pearmain has a screen test—the first in several years. Before flying to Sydney to meet her new agent, the director, and the rest of the cast of Half-Life of the Lost, she cashes in the mystery holiday voucher that was a gift from her recently deceased Cousin Lupin. Sailing on the yacht Tulpenmanie was fun…until one of the crewmen went missing. That was bad, but now he’s turned up and jumped into the sea with Pip in his arms. Well…she did agree to meet his family! Skinny dipping under a waterfall, swimming into a cave, dancing on the chalk and meeting an extended family takes Pip’s mind off the impending return to film work, but even holidays in fairyland have to end. Pip knows she needs to be back at Lemonwood Cottage in time to take her agent’s call. She has to organise a sitter for the cats who seemed curiously willing to let her go and leave them with a stranger. Pippin Pearmain has led an interesting life, but it had been winding down. Now, at the age of sixty-six, that life has gone utterly nuts. She wouldn’t change that for the world.
