A thrilling, twisty tale of a dangerous romance set in the heart of
mid-century Savoy, from the author of Madam, Will You Talk. 'Mary
Stewart is magic' New York Times Linda Martin understands what is
to be lonely: her parents died when she was young, and she was
raised in an orphanage. When she is hired as a governess to the
orphaned young Philippe, Comte de Valmy, Linda finds a kindred
spirit in the lonely little boy. But Philippe is the heir to a vast
estate in Savoy, and his dangerously handsome uncle may be willing
to kill to ensure that Philippe never inherits it . . . Praise for
Mary Stewart: 'A wonderful wordsmith' Scotsman 'I'd rather read her
than most other authors' Harriet Evans 'One of the great British
storytellers of the 20th century' Independent 'She set the
benchmark for pace, suspense and romance - with a great dollop of
escapism as the icing' Elizabeth Buchan Reader reviews of Nine
Coaches Waiting: 'I was hooked from page one to page-the-end . . .
Stewart is a wonderful writer' 'It had me in it's thrall from start
to finish. I am compelled to recommend this book to anyone who
loves a good read that keeps you on tenterhooks all the way
through' 'I finished it at 4 in the morning. Talk about
unputdownable!' 'A very good blend of thriller and romance . . .
perfect for a lazy day by the pool'
