Der er ingen diskussionstråde på Snak om denne bog. in genre ( ) Tense, elliptical prose with flashes of real warmth and humour enliven Frances Fyfield’s crime novels. She is a very individual writer – concentrating on the darkness of human existence and seeing it from the inside of her characters for the most part. Not for her the dull police-procedural approach to crime! Her character exposition is particularly good and her prose style is evocative, if rambling. The plot here concerns an independent female lawyer with a penchant for lost causes, a mysterious death in the past which still causes reverberations for the inhabitants of a small seaside town, and a visitor to a remarkable hotel which eventually seems to take on a strange existence of its own. All of this is enjoyably eccentric in a way that has made Frances Fyfield one of my favourite acquired tastes. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse

Someone has stolen the only person John Smith has ever loved - his twin brother Cannon. Johnny will stop at nothing to get him back but Cannon doesn't feel the same way any more. He's married now, and he loves his wife. In a desperate effort to avoid Johnny's destructive brotherly affections, Cannon enlists the aid of Sarah Fortune, a lawyer who has turned helping the needy and eccentric into something of an art form. Sarah hides Cannon's wife for him, but she cannot quite trust Cannon's judgement. Is Johnny really intent on inflicting unendurable pain on the woman who has hi-jacked his brother's affections? Sarah doesn't really believe in evil, and it is that lack of faith which makes her shockingly vulnerable ... No library descriptions found. |
