About this listen

The third volume in the best-selling Wideacre trilogy. Set in the 18th century, they launched the career of Philippa Gregory, the best-selling author of The Other Boleyn Girl and Three Sisters, Three Queens.

Meridon, a desolate Romany girl, is determined to escape the hard poverty of her childhood. Riding bareback in a travelling show while her sister, Dandy, risks her life on the trapeze, Meridon dedicates herself to freeing them both from danger and want.

But Dandy, beautiful, impatient, thieving Dandy, grabs too much too quickly. And Meridon finds herself alone, riding in bitter grief through the rich Sussex farmlands towards a house called Wideacre - which awaits the return of the last of the Laceys.

Listened to the three books of this saga. All really well read & engaging. I found it hard to stop listening when I should turn off to get things done! The history incorporated & characters were realistic & was easy to picture as I was listening the the story unfold. Definitely worth a listen.

I really enjoyed the last book in this trilogy. I found the story interesting and a very good summer listen. The characters were well developed and I will miss them for a bit.
The narrator did a good job of capturing the characters personalities and moods.
I'd recommend this to anyone looking for a historical tale encompassing polish and grime.

Very enjoyable

I really enjoyed this wonderful story. At times I thought it was hopeless for the characters but it’s not good to assume anything. Solid story, lots of twists and turns.

Super Enjoyable

Good light hearted listening. Very thorough story building as usual, you feel as if you are therein the story.. Sometimes you want to shake some sense into the main character but it works to involve you further into the book. Enjoyable
