Product Description

Can a ghost scare off a young heiress determined to make her new manor her home?

Having inherited a family estate she’d never heard of, Minerva Goodridge travels to Cornwall to take charge of her new home. But fatal memories lurk in the shadows of Trekellis Manor. As the locals keep away from the house, Minnie accepts the help of a stranger. Can she trust him?

Gideon Drake, 8th Earl of Rothdale, is on a mission to uncover a family secret linked to Trekellis Manor. But the arrival of Minerva, the new owner, disrupts his investigation. Attracted to the headstrong heiress, he decides to take action – and ends up uncovering more than he expected.

Gideon must weigh up his family’s reputation against Minnie’s, but will the revelations tear them apart?

Silent Deception is a romantic Victorian suspense novella set in Cornwall.

4.0 out of 5 stars Feisty heroine, a man with secrets, mystery . . . and beautiful Cornwall! 4 Aug 2012
By Joanna Gawn, Author of The Lazuli Portals
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
A feisty heroine, a mystery, ghostly goings-on, and a handsome man with his own secrets and motives.

Cathie Dunn's passion for history is evident, and adding the beautiful county of Cornwall to the mix sealed the deal for me!

This made a good tale, and I very much enjoyed reading it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Short and sweet! 4 Oct 2012
By A. Jardine
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
If you're a fan of short novellas you'll enjoy this book. I would like to have learned more about Gideon and Minnie, and would have enjoyed more development of their relationship, but the novella doesn't give the scope for that, though the Victorian setting is just right for this plot. I've read Miss Dunn's other books and have enjoyed them greatly, and indeed look forward to her next full-length novel.

5.0 out of 5 stars An engaging heroine 17 July 2012
By M. Vincent-Northam
Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase
Silent Deception opens with Minnie arriving in Cornwall and seeking out someone to take her to Trekellis Manor, the haunted ancestral home she's inherited. Step forward Gideon Drake who is eager enough to assist. Does Gideon have an ulterior motive? You bet he does.

With the locals steering clear of the manor, Minnie has no option but to agree to his help even though she suspects not all is as it should be. Before she can settle in her new home she must uncover the truth behind the family scandal and how Gideon is caught up in the enigma.

This is a very enjoyable romantic novella with more than a hint of mystery, set in Victorian Cornwall. The period is depicted well with a good flavour of the times without bogging the reader down with historical irrelevances.
