This is another great historical tale from Minette Walters.
A rich story that keeps you turning the pages.
Set in Dorset in 1642 on the brink of a civil war.
Jayne Swift is a unrecognised physician who is battling to do her work against all the prejudices of the time.
Jayne meets William Harrier when he is a footman and their stories begin to link.
What will be the connection between these two characters?
Such vivid characters and a story you want to continue to read, this book will be a hit not just to historical fiction fans but also fans of a good story.
It is such a well researched and atmospheric book that you are in the story and can view the settings clearly. The characters are also well developed and you go along on their path with them throughout the book.
Highly recommended to all.
Thank you to the author, the publisher and Reader’s First in allowing me to read in return for a review.
