I read it to the end, yet I didn't really say I enjoyed it much. Everyone is different, doesn't mean that I didn't find it that good, that someone else would really find it excellent. I just have my opinion.

I thought it was contrived and disliked the privileged characters.In the end I was sucked into the plot , and found it a spellbinding page turner

5.0 out of 5 stars My New Favourite

Y. · 5 September 2024

I loved this book. I enjoyed Eloise which was fantastic especially considering it was a first novel. This however, goes above and beyond and joins the ranks of one of my top three favourite novels, (add I’m an avid reader). It’s a great plot full of twists and turns but above all it is beautifully written. The only downside to Judy’s writing for me is that she hasn’t written many more novels.

2.0 out of 5 stars Didn’t grab my imagination

After reading a couple of chapters I skipped to the end which I rarely do. Personally I like more description - scenery, locations, people, whereas I felt this story was just about the characters and their interaction. I also feel one should read Eloise first. But Cornwall, Manderley, the house, the Ball, the coastal cottage, Mrs Danvers, is always pictured in your mind. If you haven’t read Rebecca by Daphne du Maurier - give it a go!
