This book was great from finish to end. It did not end at all the way I expected, which is always a pleasure.

Love Mary Stewart!
Mary Stewart stories are excellent mysteries written in the 1960's. A little bit gothic romance but mostly mystery. I loved her books as a girl and am collecting them to read again.

Classic Reading, Classic Author
This tale of a woman settling into a small English community is classic Mary Stewart. I borrowed this so many times from the library, I decided I needed my own hardcover copy.

Marvelous Mary Stewart reading -- takes you to a world -gone-by -- a life of sensing the beauty around us (and the mystery). I recommend ALL of her books --------- for a pleasant "escape" from the mundane, humdrum,war-weary world we are forced to live in.

Boring
Couldn't get into this book. Didn't hold my attention until the last 1/4. FORCED myself to keep reading hoping that it would get better. If you want a sleeper, this is it.
