This book attracted me as it isn’t only a ‘who-dunnit’ but is also set in Vienna in 1902 and involves a Professor of Psychology (Liebermann) so there is plenty of psychoanalysis and Sherlock Holmes type deductions.

I really enjoyed this book, it stood out from other books in its ‘class’ (chick-lit type books) as it deals with quite powerful and emotive subjects, like rape and alcoholism, and yet is still very readable.

I always love Mary Higgins Clark’s books as they are such good and entertaining plots full of twists and coincidences.
This is a really tantalising storyline – Celia is bought a house as a surprise present from her husband, yet (unknown to everyone else) Celia is actually Liza Barton who lived in this same house […]

This is such a treat of a book, it feels like a real indulgence to pick it up and look through it! It is an anthology of diary entries from over 170 diarists, and is absolutely fascinating. I can’t stress enough how much I enjoyed this book, it is one of the most […]

This is another superb book by Penny Vincenzi. I always enjoy her books as they have such strong female characters, full of determination and courage. She so accurately portrays the two sides of her female characters - on the surface they appear so well presented and to fit perfectly into their society with […]
