Amy Cameron lives in Edinburgh and is the marketing and communications manager for the Variety theatre. Previously an aspiring violinist, a negative review a few years ago led to her packing her violin away and feeling like a failure. It doesn't help that her job is in trouble as the theatre isn't bringing in money like it used to and her friends are all in relationships and it feels like they are edging her out.

When she receives an email opportunity meant for photographer "Cameron A", she feels bad that it hasn't made it to its intended recipient and she searches to see if she can forward it on. She sends it to photographer Cameron Armstrong who is currently travelling around Antarctica on a job and the two exchange emails, sort of like pen pals.

The plot was lovely and I really liked Amy's growth and development. I felt like the emails could have given me more depth and feelings but it is an entertaining slow burn all the same!
