Reviews

well written historical fiction


(4 stars)

Orczy has a way of placing the reader in the time period she is writing about, in this case England under the Puritan zealous government. History, treachery, love, and a twisting plot. I enjoyed the reading, thank you for reading this novel

hesitant reader


(3 stars)

Good story spoiled by stilted reading. a pity!
