Instead it focuses on Flora, a friendly and caring person who was brought up in Cornwall by her father. The story doesn't switch between the perspectives of the twins, as I thought it might. By a somewhat unlikely coincidence they meet, for the first time, in their early twenties. They look identical, but have rather different personalities. Bizarrely, neither parent mentioned the existence of a twin to the child they raised. Rose and Flora are twins, separated at birth when their parents divorced, and decided to take one of them each. I last read 'Under Gemini' in 1999 so it was more than time for a re-read.
How I love Rosamunde Pilcher's books! Both her longer sagas and her shorter, lighter romances have the most wonderful characters who get right under my skin, almost from the first chapter.
