A Snowfall of Silver is an enchanting coming of age romance about following your dreams — even when they aren't quite what you expected.
In the autumn of 1931, 18-year-old Freya Trevelyan runs away from her home in Cornwall to follow her dream of becoming an actress. When she is invited to join a theatrical company about to head out on tour, Freya thinks the path to success is clear, and, amidst all the glamour and bustle of stage life, she finds a place to belong for the first time. But what if her life — and falling in love — turn out to be nothing like she planned?
