Overview
This two-book collection brings together two very different sides of beloved Strictly Come Dancing star Anton Du Beke. Steps in Time: The Moments that Made Me is his warm, witty memoir tracing experiences that shaped his life on and off the dance floor. We'll Meet Again, the fourth Buckingham Hotel novel, returns readers to the glamour and wartime drama of London's grandest hotel. Together, these brand-new hardback and paperback titles make a thoughtful gift for Strictly fans, dance lovers, and readers of heartfelt wartime fiction.
About the Books
Steps in Time: The Moments that Made Me is Anton Du Beke's first memoir, a nostalgic look back at the people, places, and pivotal moments that turned a working-class boy from Sevenoaks into one of Britain's most recognizable entertainers. Written with the same charm and self-deprecating humor he brings to the Strictly judging panel, the book explores his childhood, his discovery of dance, and the long road to television stardom, offering fans a rare, personal glimpse behind the glitterball. We'll Meet Again continues the saga of London's fictional Buckingham Hotel as World War II tightens its grip on the city. Old friends Raymond, Nancy, Artie, and Vivienne return amid a backdrop of danger, romance, and resilience, as the hotel's staff strive to maintain elegance and hospitality even as bombs fall and secrets threaten to unravel long-held loyalties. Du Beke, a Sunday Times bestselling author, weaves ballroom glamour, wartime peril, and genuine warmth into a sweeping, page-turning saga that keeps readers guessing until the final page. Read together, this set showcases Du Beke's range as a writer: equally at home reflecting candidly on his own remarkable life story and spinning an immersive, emotionally rich period drama set against one of history's most turbulent eras. Both books carry his unmistakable voice, blending wit, heart, and a deep love of dance and old-fashioned glamour.
