3 out of 5 stars Really sorry to be negative   July 25, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

For the first time ever, I have been unable to finish a Barbara Erskine. I'm a fan of her work, read all her books, buy them in hardback on the day of release, normally have them in pre-order with Amazon for months in advance. A month down the line, I've not finished this book and this morning I've taken the bookmark out and I've given up. I simply don't care what happens. I've no interest in the characters, found them incredibly annoying and can't relate to them at all. I'm gutted. I'm giving it a 3 just in case it's my own tastes that have changed. I will be buying her next one, after all, her last one, I read in 2 days flat, this one, it's been a hard slog and I've not reached the finish line. Sorry!

Yes, it's as good if not better than "The Lady of Hay" although at times I felt like kicking Jess to switch on her mobile!

Received this a week ago. I have been unable to put it down, it is so readable. One of Barbara Erskine's best, and I have read them all.


5 out of 5 stars Excellent couldn't put it down   July 11, 2008

I read this book in 1 days I just couldn't put it down and I agree with the previous reviews that it is as good as Lady of Hay. Look forward to her next book.


5 out of 5 stars Absolutely gripping story   July 8, 2008

I was hooked from the very first page. The tension builds until you almost can't bear to read any more. I had to read it in small chunks until I got to the last 150 pages - when I couldn't bear to put it down until I knew what happened. Jess goes through a traumatic time in her own life and finds herself haunted by Eigon - a princess from Romano Britain - when she escapes from her problems to stay at her sister's Welsh farmhouse. Her pursuit of the truth about Eigon leads her into danger and also to Rome where her sister is staying with a friend. Jess starts to see friends and enemies in a new light. Can she uncover the truth about the present as well as the past? If you like 'Lady of Hay' you will love this. It is Barbara Erskine on top form.
