Great gothic
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
I really enjoyed this Susan Howatch book. Despite the formulaic plot, the characterisation of the heroine and the hero are slightly out of the ordinary. In the midst of the murders and detection, the romance is nicely developed. The heroine is quite young and childish but the hero, Axel is approriately mysterious! A well written Gothic read and the only historical one out of the six short novels that Howatch wrote before her masterpiece Penmarric was published.
