Anton Du Beke - the King of Ballroom, Strictly Come Dancing royalty, and household name - is one of this generation's all-round entertainers. In 2018, he realised his boyhood ambition and published the first in a series of bestselling novels set in the 1930s world of the exclusive Mayfair hotel, The Buckingham.
A beautiful wartime tale

Heart-breaking, heart-lifting and enchanting
*CAROL KIRKWOOD*
A fabulous novel from the King of the Ballroom
*WOMAN'S WEEKLY*
Du Beke effectively cuts the glamour and aspiration of the ballroom
with the grubby, ghastly side of the war at home
*DAILY MAIL*
A compelling, Downtonesque drama with likeable characters and nasty
profiteers
*SAGA MAGAZINE*
You don't need to be a Strictly fan to relish this lively read, its
glamour, magic and colourful characters contrasting starkly with
the privations of grey, war-torn London.
