Love this review! A 'captivating wartime mystery (that) blends the intrigue of Foyle’s War with suspense of Agatha Christie. Set (in) atmospheric Cornwall 1944 ... espionage, deception, & a country house brimming with secrets.' Angela Barnes mybook.to/BobRobbinsMy...

I would argue most reviews say more about the reviewer than the book. What we readers bring to a text can only modify what the author intended.

I have been re-reading Tey over the past year. Bratt Farrar & Daughter of Time are excellent. I also love the reminder of how well-mannered Brits used to be:)

In Books 2 & 3 (wip) of The Doomsong Saga I'm trying to show how many so-called Vikings were also settlers looking for better land & climate. They
didn't all live by the axe.
