The Rising Tide
Autor Molly Keaneen Limba Engleză Paperback – iun 2006
This is the story of one glorious gothic mansion, Garonlea, and two rather different women who would be Queen. Lady Charlotte French-McGrath has successfully ruled over her family with an iron will, until the arrival of Cynthia—beautiful, young, talented, selfish, and engaged to her son Desmond. Cynthia is a denizen of the Jazz Age and, on the surface, her life passes in a whirl of hunting, drinking, and romance. But the ghosts of Garonlea are only biding their time. They know the source of their power—a secret handed down through generations.

Pritchett Psychologically sharp, socially knowing and closely knit IRISH TIMES The characterisation of women is first class Sebastian Faulks She is akin to Jane Austen in her feeling for the minutae of human behaviour Polly Devlin
