Average rating -

Rating: - Not his best but very readable.

Kerr is one of my favourite writers but I felt the plot was over elaborate at times but still a decent read.

Rating: - superb holiday reading

I got this book in audio version and loaded it onto my ipod for holiday listening. I had never heard of this author before and was more than slightly dubious about the book - WHAT A BIG MISTAKE ON MY PART - this is one of those books that comes along rarely that you can really get into and don't want to finish. The narration was superb and I was able to relax and get into the book very easily. There are several twists and turns but I am giving away no details except to say that the author certainly makes you feel that you are back in that era and location - never the less this book is an absolute must for all who enjoy a really good murder/thriller. Please either listen or read this.

Rating: - Almost Unputdownable

Although I thought this started off fairly slowly, the plot/action/tension increases dramatically in part two of the story. As someone wrote previously, we know what happens at the end in real life, but I still was more than satisfied with the way this novel finished.

Rating: - Great thriller

I bought the book on a hunch and I was blown away. Great character depiction and a perfect story. Almost alternative history stuff. One of the best books I ever read. I wonder why Hollywood has not made a film of it? They have made dozens of junk films. Why not this? It would make the perfect movie. I strongly recommend the book.

Rating: - Found this book in Spain - Great!

Having never heard of the author or the book before, I decided to give it a go, not one for read alot of books, but this was brilliant! Completed it in 3 days on Holiday and really enjoyed it. I'm glad I hadn't heard of it before as it seems everyone is revealling the plot, which was really good.

Just about to buy another from the Author to read...
