Product Description

Product Description

Like a country house murder story, this novel unveils as much about all the characters as it does about the woman who so mysteriously vanish into thin air on her wedding day. Her father, her sister, her husband-to-be and his family - all have something to hide,something to fear from the collapse of their delicateweb of secrets. Set partly in a great English country house, and partly in Paris against a background of haute couture and the fashion collections, this novel has all the ingredients which have made Penny Vincenzi a bestseller.


About the Author

Penny Vincenzi began her career as a junior secretary for Vogue and Tatler. She later worked as Fashion and Beauty Editor on magazines such as Women's Own, before becoming a contributing editor for Cosmopolitan. She has written ten previous novels.

5.0 out of 5 stars Heart wrenching love and trauma in equal measures, 18 April 2001
By A Customer
This is the first book of Penny Vincenzi's that i have read and i can honestly say that it is the best book i have read in a long while. The characters draw you in and it leaves you taking a long hard look at those who you are closest to and wondering if you really know them as well a you think you do. My only grumble is that a sequel has not been written. Fantastic !!

4.0 out of 5 stars Hooked, 26 May 2007
By O. Doyle "celticshedevil" (Ireland) - See all my reviews
(TOP 100 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Another Woman (Paperback)
At the opening of this novel Cressida Forrest and Oliver Bergin are hosting their nearest and dearest at a pre-wedding dinner the night before they are due to be married. But by dawn Cressida has disappeared and the before long it's not just Cressida's secrets that unfold.

From extramarital affairs to financial dodgy dealings and all the bits in between this book has it all. I won't say too much about who's involved in which bits as it'll ruin the surprise. What I will say however is that this book isn't all doom and gloom. There are happy endings, there are new beginnings but there's more secrets and lies than anything. And they're gonna keep you hooked to see how each part fits into the next. Each chapter is told from the perspective of a different character and it's so masterfully done that switching from character to character is easy.

All in all a thoroughly engrossing book and I'll be picking up a few more Penny Vincenzi's to add to my collection.

5.0 out of 5 stars Unputdownable!, 26 Feb 2007
This review is from: Another Woman (Paperback)
I started this book on Friday night and finished it on Sunday night - and it is over 600 pages! I haven't read a book in ages that had me so hooked. The story takes place over a 48 hour period and each chapter is written from a different characters perspective - all the while moving it on at a pace. To start with, while the characters were being established, I thought I was getting confused and wouldn't remember certain facts but it all soon fell in to place. I found the end a little unrewarding but difficult to say why without giving the plot away!
