The Jeremy Brett - Linda Pritchard story on the wings of paradise - Linda Pritchard

When actor Jeremy Brett starred in Granada TV’s Sherlock Holmes in the 1980’s he became a household name around the world. His appeal was enormous and he inspired devotion from many who met him but perhaps most of all in Linda Pritchard, who is no ordinary person herself. In 1989, Linda set out on a 4,000 mile run around the coast of the United Kingdom to raise money for cancer research. It was then that Jeremy’s and Linda’s life collided and from that moment on, their friendship would be extraordinary. There would be moments of incredible happiness and periods of unimaginable darkness. Intimate, heartbreaking, and profoundly inspiring, this story will leave no reader unmoved. It reveals the strength and courage of the gifted actor who struggled to overcome monumental handicaps, and the patience and tenacity of the woman who stood by his side through it all.
