  'I said once that she could not die. She has died. My beautiful Isabel is dead. This is her story. The story of a woman - the most remarkable woman whom I have ever known - whom I loved from the first moment I saw her. It does not matter who I am, though my part in the tale will become apparent. I will simply give voice to the events which befell her, aided by her own words through extracts from her diary entries, in which her voice still rings as clear as day. For the lady is dead, and her earthly story is ended. But for you, reader, it is just beginning...' Brought to her aunt's estate to await her coming of age, the orphaned heiress Isabel Audley is eagerly planning her future. But when dark events begin to unfold she realises that her life was never her own and experience is something not always to be desired. Whisking the reader back into the depths of nineteenth-century England, Isabel Hope is a thrilling tale of danger and romance. 'I was drawn into this irresistible book, with all its surprises and suspense until I couldn't put it down. Riveting!' - Caroline Laidlaw 'A truly gripping story that engages both your heart and mind through every twist and turn.' - Julie Constable 'A compelling and very human story about hope in the midst of darkness. Beautifully written.' - Jenny Morgan
