This isn't a review, just rather frustrated as I've just bought The Long Way Home, and found out I've already got it under the title, A Matter of Trust. I've got a lot of books, with lots in the 'still to read' pile, so can't always remember the details of all of them. Bit of a swizz when publishers change titles.

Format:Hardcover
From the opening chapter set in central Scotland in which Claire is brusquely dumped by her (boy)friend I was drawn into this story and its gradually unfolding mysteries. As the plot twists and turns Pilcher heightens the drama by moving backwards and forwards in time. That all will be resolved eventually is not in doubt, but we are kept guessing right up to the last as to how this can be done. A very enjoyable book which like a delicious salad leaves one nicely satisfied.

Robin Pilcher has that knack of writing in a way with which we can all identify. A Matter of Trust is one of those books which, whilst reading, becomes a friend; it is indeed a sadness to finish a book which gives so much pleasure. Highly recommended.

Robin Pilcher at his best
I have read all Robin Pilcher's books and A Matter of Trust is an excellent read, but his first book An Ocean Apart is by far his best work
