Book description
Belsfield Hall, 1805. The sudden disappearance of her niece's
fiancé at their engagement ball leads Miss Dido Kent to worry that
something sinister may have occurred. Before long, her fears are confirmed.
Family secrets, long consigned to the darkest recesses of the past,
begin to emerge as Dido attempts to unravel the strange happenings.
But with the discovery of a body in the shrubbery, Mr Richard
Montague's unexplained absence becomes all the more suspicious, and
when she finally arrives at the startling truth, it is to change the
lives of all involved for ever.
Anna Dean lives in the Lake District with a husband and a cat. She
sometimes works as a Creative Writing tutor and as a guide showing
visitors around William Wordsworth's home, Dove Cottage. Her interests
include walking, old houses, Jane Austen, cream teas, Star Trek and
canoeing on very flat water.
