THE TIMES

Se alle

Infallibly elegant... All this lies beneath the sparkling, well groomed surface of a novel which could quite easily be read as a light diversion for an idle afternoon. But look more closely and something as grim as Greek tragedy is played out around the cosy family dinner table

- Jane Shilling, DAILY TELEGRAPH

As ever, Trollope writes about family life with wit, intelligence and verve

GUARDIAN

A poignant tale about a mother watching her children grow up and marry, and her sadness as they drift further away. Joanna's descriptive writing expresses true wrought emotion and hurt

The author's psychology, as always, is sound, the plotting secure and the pacing brisk and page-turning. Another winner
