From the original queen of the page-turner and author of Madam,
Will You Talk? comes a thrilling tale set in a France as beautiful
as it is deadly, perfect for fans of Agatha Christie and Barbara
Pym. 'Mary Stewart is magic' New York Times 'One of the great
British storytellers of the 20th century' Independent 'There are
few to equal Mary Stewart' Daily Telegraph High in the rugged
Pyrenees lies the Valley of the Storms, where a tiny convent clings
to the beautiful but lonely mountainside. Jenny Silver arrives
seeking her missing cousin, and is devastated when she learns of
Gillian's death following a terrible car accident. But Jenny's
suspicions are aroused when she's told the blue flowers ornamenting
her cousin's grave were Gillian's favourite. Jenny knows Gillian
was colour-blind - and so starts her mission to uncover what really
happened to her. The growl and roar of thunder rolled an re-echoed
from the mountains and the sword of the lightning stabbed down, and
stabbed again, as if searching through the depths of the cringing
woods for whatever sheltered there. 'A comfortable chair and a Mary
Stewart: total heaven. I'd rather read her than most other
authors.' Harriet Evans 'She built the bridge between classic
literature and modern popular fiction. She did it first and she did
it best.' Herald' 'One of the most stupendously successful authors
ever' Sunday Express
