Al otro lado del espejo

Meer over het boek

Barbara Devane, the beautiful girl who became one of the best-loved heroines in popular American fiction, is now a widow of twenty, emotionally devastated and financially ruined by the death of her husband in scandalous circumstances. Yet as Barbara struggles to develop a family tobacco plantation in colonial Virginia, she rediscovers herself and learns she has the strength and integrity to create a different kind of life. Returning to London, she confronts her enemies, and she pursues there a deeply satisfying yet dangerous clandestine love. Like "Through a Glass Darkly," "Now Face to Face" sweeps readers away into the suspense, intrigue, and grandeur of a lost era - and into the sensuous and sophisticated lives of a vast and vivid cast of characters, at the center of which is the passionate, unforgettable Barbara Devane.
