Media Reviews
'This is a story of violent love and unsettling passions. It will never let you rest for a page as you wait for the climax that must come for the people and the land' Maeve Binchy 'Amid all the social upheaval strides Beatrice Lacey, who, for singlemindedness, tempestuousness, passion, amorality, sensuality and plain old-fashioned evil, knocks Scarlet O'Hara into short cotton socks' Evening Standard
