3.0 out of 5 stars NOT BAD...NOT GREAT..., 18 Nov 2002
By Lawyeraau (Balmoral Castle) - See all my reviews
(TOP 10 REVIEWER)   
This review is from: Rose Cottage (Paperback)
This is a mildly suspenseful, atmospheric novel about a young, war widow, Kate Herrick, who in 1947 at the request of her ill grandmother in Scotland goes to Rose Cottage, her childhood home in the English countryside. Kate is to retrieve some of her grandmother's documents and personal belongings. When she gets there, however, she discovers that she is too late. Someone has been there before her.

As Kate investigates the mysterious disappearance of her grandmother's property, she ends up discovering somethings about her own past. Well written and redolent of a bygone era, the book unravels a pleasant, uncomplicated story. Never too mysterious and not one of the author's best efforts, the book is a predictable, though somewhat enjoyable, read.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not her best work., 8 Dec 2002
This review is from: Rose Cottage (Paperback)
If you are a diehard Mary Stewart fan you will buy this book whatever reviewers say. I did, after all! But it does not rank along with her more suspenseful novels of her "thriller" periods, or alongside her "magical romance" books. It also lacks the maturity of her Arthurian and period novels. So what do we have here? A pleasant and undemanding little book; I might have thought it a first novel. Did the manuscript perhaps sit around for years before being dusted off and tidied up for publication? As I say, if you are a fan you will buy it anyway - but if you are a newcomer to the author, please start with some of her other books first!
