Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

"Taut with tension and an air of authority that stems from Knight's expertise in Scottish History."--Irish Times "A gothic novel! This shows that the genre is alive and well in the Noughties, and Ms Knight can deliver up a real page-turner... This is also a novel with a strong sense of place like all this author's books, and couple with an intriguing plot and a good sense of pace, makes for an entertaining read, soppy dog notwithstanding."--Historical Novels Review "I was really pleasantly surprised by this book. I thought it was going to be stuffy and pretentious; instead, it is unaffected and entertaining."--The Bookbag

Reseña del editor:

The autumn of 1897 began well, but within days Rose McQuinn lost two precious things - her fiance, Jack Macmerry, and her elusive dog, Thane. Her stubborn refusal to give up her job as Lady Detective cost her the man whose love she had taken for granted. A police sergeant couldn't be expected to have a female sleuth for a wife, and so he found comfort in the arms of a more accommodating woman. And now it seems that Thane's real owners have been found. But when Rose tries to return the hound to the Staines family she is called upon to discover the identity of a blackmailer and thief. The family's tragic past colours Rose's search for the truth and plunges her into ever more dangerous waters. Just who can she trust in this isolated haven, and what type of life will she be returning to when she finally leaves?
