PRAISE FOR GILL PAUL: ‘Meticulously researched and evocatively
written, this sweeping story will keep a tight hold on your
heartstrings until the final page’ Iona Grey ‘A cleverly crafted
novel and an enthralling story: the heartbreak genuine, the
research brilliant. I love the way the present narrative throws
light on the past story so that the transitions are smooth. A
triumph.’ Dinah Jefferies ‘A warm-hearted and engaging novel that
breathes fresh life into the well-known tragedy of the Titanic’
Amanda Brookfield. ‘A marvellous story: gripping, romantic and
evocative of a turbulent and fascinating time’ Lulu Taylor ‘This
was just magical. At the last line, tears rolled down my cheeks.
Highly recommended.’ Louise Beech 'A heart-warming affirmation of
the tenacity of human love' Liz Trenow 'Gill Paul has crafted a
beautiful book. The passages set in Russia in 1914 are so richly
described and researched that I felt as if I was living in the
pages myself. I adored it.' Amanda Jennings ‘This is an intriguing
and involving book that explores a really fascinating period in
time in a clever and highly enjoyable way. I was hooked into both
timelines from the start.’
Joanna Courtney, author of The Chosen Queen and The Constant Queen
‘A beautiful and moving story, beautifully and movingly told. I
read it in just two sittings . . . I enjoyed every page’ John
Julius Norwich ‘Gill Paul has clearly done her research in this
absorbing story that cleverly blends imagination with historical
fact. Tragic, touching and authentic-feeling.’ Kate Riordan ‘A
marvellous moving adventure, full of vivid colour and atmospheric
detail. If you loved POLDARK you’ll love this!’ Lulu Taylor ‘A
terrific adventure story, full of romance and atmospheric detail –
a great escapist read’ Liz Trenow
