A woman must go back to her past life and confront a relationship that has only brought her heartbreak to save an innocent and to triumph in her own power of a woman/
Such an enjoyable read, but then this author always writes excellent books. I loved it and could barely put it down. I ran out of borrowed/swapped books, and even so, it was worth every cent!!!!

Strong woman faces adversity and is successful and finds love, what could be better. A well written tale that keeps a reader involved, brings tears of concern and leaves a reader wanting to know these characters more. A wonderful book.
For me, this novel got good about half way through. There were definitely a couple of suprises I never saw coming.
Excellent book, I loved it!
Some people love to read novels set in upper class surroundings, portraying family dynamics. Here is a book for them. With this genre you cannot expect deep characters and a clever plot. The beauty of these books lies elsewhere, and many readers will find them shallow. I was impressed by the language, and Bradford is obviously a better writer than many bestseller authors.

Good reading! Perfect for commuting!
This intriguing tale is the epitome of Barbara Taylor Bradford's writing. An exceptional vocal talent of Janet McTeer brings the tale to life. Most enjoyable.
Abridged. 4 cassettes. 6 hours.
