Recenzii
'The Vanishing at Loxby Manor cleverly combines Regency romance with Gothic intrigue, and the result is a suspenseful, thoroughly entertaining read. Charming and lovely.'
'Abigail Wilson's latest Gothic romance hits the notes readers have come to expect from her talented pen: romance, shadows and intrigue and a brilliantly executed atmosphere. She is a master at her craft and a rare stand-out in a popular genre.'
'This Gothic mystery hits all the buttons: handsome brothers, invalid father, unpredictable mother, sinister butler, strange noises, abandoned ruins, jilted marriage pacts, and secret societies. I would recommend it to anyone who loves Regency romance with a bit of eerie foreboding.'
'Wilson's fourth outing in G-rated Regency romantic suspense (following Masquerade at Middlecrest Abbey) is dense with Gothic incident . . . the result is a light, atmospheric outing.'
