Critics Review
A story of love, deceit, changelings, and mistaken identity worthy of a Restoration dramatist * Daily Mail *A sumptuous and enthralling novel about art, love, illusion and money…with the denouement of a classic * The Times *A byzantine plot that hurtles towards disaster, while retaining the polished veneer of a Dutch interior * Harpers & Queen *Sensuous and masterly…a gorgeous novel * Mail on Sunday *Clever, spry and sad in equal measure…a pacy plot whose twists and shifts of viewpoint make for much anxious page-turning * Daily Telegraph *A scintillating story of lust, deception and retribution * Independent on Sunday *Beautifully written…with a featherlight touch, Moggach keeps the tension at fever-pitch until the final hilarious – and entirely unexpected – climax * Independent on Sunday *A story of love, deceit, changelings, and mistaken identity worthy of a Restoration dramatist – Anna Pavord * Daily Mail *
