Product Description
Synopsis
Douglas Petty is a man who enjoys his reputation as an unreconstructed male with a penchant for too much wine and too many women. Inheriting his father's eccentric estate and dog sanctuary quietened him a little, and marriage to Amy a little more. Even so, it seemed out of character for him a sue a tabloid newspaper for libel when it printed a scurrilous story about him. His lawyers told him he had a good chance of winning the case, mainly because Amy's testimony would clearly refute the story. But then Amy is involved in a horrendous train crash and while the authorities assume she died in the resulting fire, there is no body to prove it. And if she wasn't killed why has she disappeared and, with no money and no other family, where is she? In a story of mesmerising suspense, Amy slowly reveals why she cannot return to her beloved home, and why she can never escape from the lies she was told as a child.

1.0 out of 5 stars Too difficult to stick with, 7 Jan 2006
By A Customer
i gave up on this book after about a third way through. i like a good mystery but this book was just too mysterious. I had no idea which characters, if any, i liked/disliked. I could not decide who was 'good' or 'bad' and felt totally lost. I know its good to work at a plot and fathom things out for ourselves, but this was just too dense. People said things that bore no relation to what had gone before and there was no real pull to read on further.

5.0 out of 5 stars From the back cover..., 21 Mar 2007
This review is from: The Nature of the Beast (Paperback)
Why would the survivor of a rail crash walk away from the scene and then pretend to be dead?
