I don't know if my expectations were too high with all the really positive reviews, but this one didn't grab me as much as I'd hoped. The villain is really very, very wicked and the protagonist must be as blind as bats!

I like at least an attemp at historical accuracy in my historical fiction, but there were some odd things going on here IMO. First Floor conservatory? Unlikely - or an Americanism?!

Hi everyone, I’ve just discovered Smashbomb and I’m so excited to speak to people who are obsessed with reading as much as I am! What is everyone’s favourite genre at the minute? I love thrillers and horror but at the minute I can’t get enough of historical fiction!

I really enjoy a great thriller! I also like romance novels and I occasionally read erotica.
