Here's what readers have to say about this book....
The gift of story-telling is present throughout! Have seen details of this author's next release on various sites and decided to sample an earlier work while I wait and I have to say the gift of good story-telling is present throughout this compelling tale of intrigue, lust and duty set against the Gallipoli campaign during WWI. Agnes is the kind of heroine a reader wants to root for and she, her sister the supporting cast, add to the story, which is well imagined and deftly researched. A hugely satisfying read!
Very Satisfying Having discovered via the publisher[s] site this author has a new book coming later in the year, decided to try this one and was pleasantly surprised. It's a well researched page turning read that will delight any reader interested in the period. Multiple exotic locations and a few plot twists add to the overall impression. this is well worth a read!
Eminently readable! This author and their work were recommended to me and I thoroughly enjoyed this book. The period is well researched, although it wears it's historical background lightly and overall the story is character driven. I am going to read other titles and will look forward to anything new. On the strength of this I strongly urge readers to check out this author.
Stunning!! This novel pulled me in from the start. The period is well researched and beautifully evoked and as a whole the story was absorbing. Would highly recommend this author[s] books and look forward to future titles!
Just to say that I really enjoyed this reading the latest book from this author, which I thoroughly enjoyed. It takes you straight into the story and has a clever twist at the end. I look forward to hearing about this author's next one. Del Boy Eastbourne
