Looking it up now, I see that it was made into a TV mini series. Shame, I would have liked to have seen it back then. It was such a wonderful rags to riches sort of story.
The seductive and beguiling story of Dawn Avalon, who when wrongfully accused of a crime she didn't commit, flees her homeland to London where she becomes 'Queenie', a star of both the stage and screen.

OMG, Suzy!! I totally watched Queenie when it was on TV!! As a high school kid, I LOVED it - I remember Mia Sarah, Kirk Douglas, Joss Ackland...and a young good looking guy. I never read the book, but as when you read the book, when I saw the miniseries, it really got it hooks into me and had me dreaming about it for ages!
