'A lovely novel which I hugely enjoyed. I envy Karen Swan's skill to evoke a landscape and a very different past so effortlessly. The love story was all that one would wish and the characters are terrific.'
- Elizabeth Buchan, author of Against Her Nature
'This sweeping love story gripped us from the start, so we can't wait for the next in the series. Best historical romance.'
- Independent on The Last Summer
'Meticulously researched and beautifully told by one of our most prolific and talented writers. It contains all the ingredients of a wonderfully satisfying read: love, passion, drama, violence, menace and peril, and characters you fall in love with.'
- Santa Montefiore, author of Flappy Investigates on The Last Summer
