Convinced that her own wide audience would also delight in her favorite authors, Barbara Cartland has taken their classic t... more »ales of romance and specially adapted them for today's readers.
From Barbara Cartland:
This is one of Ethel M. Dell's most deeply emotional and passionate novels -- the whole situation of a sensitive woman who unknowingly marries the murderer of her first husband keeps one spellbound and tense from the first word. Her characters have never been more sympathetically drawn and one feels despairingly that there will never be a happy ending. With the skill which made Ethel M. Dell the most popular author of the day, she keeps us on edge, praying things will come out right, terrified they will not, until the dramatic end. No woman could fail to fall in love with the love-torn, strong-willed Piers, and Avery, soft, vulnerable, and mentally tortured, has so much of ourselves in her personality and character.« less
