The characterisation is very convincing; the scenes atmospheric; and unexpected twists kept me guessing outcomes. A romance element adds another dimension to this absorbing novel. The book has a depth that appealed to me on so many levels. What surprised me as much as anything was to discover that this was the authors debut novel ...Cancerian 9AustraliaA deep, gripping and wildly creative plot.Veritas VincitUSABrilliantly enchanting ... I thoroughly enjoyed reading it.Payal SinhaIndiaThe first thing that struck me about Terry's debut novel was her seemingly effortless ability to entwine the contemporary and historical aspects of the story. At times the writing is nothing short of spellbinding, something that is rare these days, and even rarer at the beginning of a literary career.RoseyUK
