Özet
 A secret buried so deep, only a liar could uncover it

Wiltshire, 1922.
Fifteen-year old Pudding Cartwright has begun the career she always wanted, as girl groom to the Hadleigh family's horses at Manor Farm. Irene Hadleigh is struggling to adjust to her new life in sleepy Slaughterford, having married Alistair to escape a scandal in London. At a loss to occupy herself, Irene sets about restyling Manor Farm, and during the work the chance finding of a strange object, hidden away in the house for years, will change everything.

When somebody close to both of them is murdered, Pudding and Irene are thrown together to seek out the identity of the killer in their midst, unaware of just how deep the roots of the crime lie.

During a hot, humid summer of grief, betrayal, and misapprehensions, they will uncover truths neither of them could ever have foreseen.

The perfect book group read for fans of Kate Morton, Lucinda Riley and Santa Montefiore.

Eleştirmen yorumları

An enormously talented writer
Webb has a true gift for uncovering the mysteries of the human heart and exploring the truth of love
Katherine Webb's writing is beautiful
I've loved all of Katherine Webb's books
A truly gifted writer of historical fiction
This isn't your usual country house mystery. It's a vivid portrait of rural life at a time of great change, especially for the women. In its Wiltshire setting and depth of research, it reminded me of The Suspicions of Mr Whicher, but Katherine's wonderful descriptions and characters make it sing. And I guarantee that the ending will surprise. Her legion of fans will be delighted with this immersive, beautifully written tale of secrets and betrayals that echo down the generations
Katherine's writing is rich, vivid and evocative and her characters breathtakingly real
Brilliant and absorbing drama
A haunting novel of betrayal
Katherine Webb is such a reliably good storyteller and this beguiling mystery, set so vividly in the glorious Wiltshire countryside, is no exception. It will keep you guessing right to the end. (Kate Riordan on The Hiding Places)
Plucky heroines and tangled secrets kept hidden for generations make for an involving tale of passion and
deceit.
A sleepy Wiltshire village is rudely awakened when a man is found murdered. His widow and a local teenage girl join forces to root out the killer in this engrossing story of betrayal, secrets and lies.

I've listened to books before by this narrator which I've enjoyed but this time it really wasn't great. The wrong intonation became annoying, as did the unsubtle correction of mistakes. The book itself was OK, well researched and fluffy but the jumps in time zones wasn't clear, leading to confusion. Its not put me off the author but only gets a 3 out of 5, at best.

Odd narration let the story down.

Gentle entertaining storyline, sometimes surprisingly gruesome and blood curdling, surprising twist at end. Very descriptive style.
Disliked reader’s tendency to make every sentence and statement sound like a question, tried to ‘tune it out’ but annoyingly persistent. Would only read other books by author if different reader performed it. I don’t expect to ‘love’ every voice, but truly found this performance annoying, sadly!

Story keeps you going

Great to listen to a book where you can't see the plot coming from a mile away very refreshing but still making complete sense sad in place and funny in others highly recommended

Many a twist and turn

I loved the gentle narration of this interesting and complex story and the character within it. The end had me completely surprised with the twist of story/character - loved it. Will definitely seek out other stories narrated by Anna Bentinck.

Slow at the start. We're introduced to many characters and three protagonists very early on and this made it a disjointed read for me at the beginning. But, the plot picked up and the characters became layered. I enjoyed this.

There was a very good ending with surprising revelations. I would recommend it, but it is my least favourite Webb novel, much preferred "The Legacy", "A Half forgotten Song" and "The Unseen".

would recommend, but not Webb at her finest
