About this listen

 Why should distinguished Edwardian Cabinet minister Edwin Straford resign at the height of his career? Why does the woman he loves so suddenly reject him? Why, 70 years later, should people go to such lengths to prevent the truth coming out?©2008 Robert Goddard (P)2014 Audible, Inc. Crime Fiction Historical Mystery Suspense Thriller & Suspense Fiction Crime

Critic Reviews

"Written in clear, resonant prose, Goddard's first novel, nominated for the Booker prize, is a poised telling of a complex tale....In one sense a historical thriller, and in another a romantic novel of a love affair gone disastrously wrong, this is, in any case, a wonderful read." ( Publishers Weekly)
"Psychological drama and intricate plot will entice readers." ( Library Journal)

I read this book nearly 25 years ago and it became a personal favourite. Hearing it on audible brought all those wonderful memories flooding back. Surely one of the best books ever written.

Pure brilliance
