Here she may find peace; here, at last, she will no longer be... Tovább

Here she may find peace; here, at last, she will no longer be part of the furniture. cFew novelists offer such a rich concoction of amoral spice and cleverness; but to judge her work exclusively on this level is to miss more subtle rewards' Elizabeth Buchan, Mail on Sunday 'With its brilliant final twist, this is Mary Wesley's best yet?
