No Love Lost

Meer over het boek

In The Patient at Peacocks Hall a young and beautiful woman doctor fights to save the life of her rival; lost poison seems damning evidence, and dramatic revelations follow each other in a neatly constructed story of suspense, involving a film-star, a mysterious Frenchman, and other material for village gossip. Safer than Love is set in a preparatory school at the beginning of the summer holidays. The headmaster’s young wife has her own reasons for prevaricating when inquisitive neighbours in the small town inquire about her husband’s whereabouts.
