I listened to this on Audible, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The narrator was really engaging, and the story itself was so good! Hester runs away with her sisters and her son, to escape the father of her son claiming him. They hide in a hunting lodge in Wales. Unfortunately, things don’t go as planned.
I really enjoyed E C Fremantle’s last book (The Poison Bed) and this didn’t disappoint either. Historical fiction is one of my favourite genres, and this is rich in historical detail, both in the way that people lived and their social attitudes. It’s great stuff!
