About this listen

Geoffrey Staddon turned his back on the best things in his life. He turned his back on the beautiful house Clouds Frome, his finest achievement as an architect. He turned his back on the woman he loved, Consuela Caswell, and who loved him in return.

Twelve years later, amidst the tatters of his career and marriage, he is forced to contemplate the remorse and shame of his betrayal. But when he reads that Consuela has been charged with murder, he knows instinctively that she cannot be guilty. And when she sends her own daughter to him, pleading for help, Geoffrey cannot ignore the dangerous lure of the past any longer. He must return to Clouds Frome and face the dark secret it holds.

Draws you in gently and you go from thinking this is slightly slow to hanging on every word. Plot good and satisfying

Long but engrossing

Some recent books by the author haven't been as good as those written earlier in his career, such as this book. I have vague recollections from nearly 3 decades ago of the story that I listened to on sequence of audio cassettes. How much easier it is now to listen on the hoof! Having forgotten most of the story I was gripped throughout by the twists and turns as the 'hero' stumbles from one disaster to another. It's an intriguing story even if a bit far-fetched at times. The narrator is very good.
