The setting of this tale is truly sumptuous with four poster beds and oppulent rooms as the backdrop for the girls fun and games. The passion and humour Lucy injects into all her characters is a real delight and once of the reasons for the aforementioned fandom, you can just picture Jenny's russet hair splayed on the bed and Stephanie's dominance as she revels in the delights of her sweet playmate, they have such depth and scream sexuality along with the cries of terror, the chemistry of the two as they share their toe curling sensual kisses and have fun in the library is wonderful and makes for a really enchanting read.
The murder mystery is a bit of fun and keeps things flowing nicely, and the killer certainly gets what they deserve, I cannot reveal much as I don't want to spoil the suprise but you are sure to enjoy it (and no, it's not the Victorian looking Gentleman with the candestick in the library!) The scene in the Maze was particularly spooky for me as it's one of my own fears and had the hairs up on the back of me neck up which was actually a pleasent change from all the red hot sex between the two.
The final Halloween ball is a delight with the girls taking the part of the brides of Dracula complete with bloodied fangs before slipping away for one more fumble before the weekend is through and no ghosts are going to get in the way. Weekend at Wilderhope Manor was Short, Sweet and Spooky.. One for the Things that go bump and make you want to hump pile!
