Affairs, lusts and a sudden death thread through this hugely evocative multi-generational tale set in a grand country house in 1936.
Fraser keeps the reader hooked with the twists of her protagonists' love affairs, but the real star of this book is her portrait of a disappearing life, as Sonia Haddon and ilk face war with varying degrees of courage * The Sunday Times *
This rich and engrossing novel follows them through the testing years of the coming war, including a movingly drawn forbidden love affair, all delivered with perfect period details * Sunday Mirror *
A fabulously written book.. a "must" read' * Read Along With Sue *
Fraser skilfully combines many narrative threads to build a great big satisfying saga full of passionate love, ghastly betrayal and, as Britain tips inexorably into conflict, thrilling drama * Daily Mail *
A wonderfully involving read * Sunday Express *
Intriguing and multifaceted with its lifelike mixture of romance, heartache, tragedy, heroism, accomplishment and growth. The recounting is rich in atmosphere and detail, making for an absorbing reading experience * My Merri Way *
It's one of those books where you just want to keep reading and it to never end * That Thing She Reads *
A solid summer read, ideal to take on holiday * On: Yorkshire Magazine *
