I had not read the previous books and found this one a little hard to follow because of it but I did enjoy reading it and recommend to historical fiction lovers

Ms Walters can surely write books that keeps you hooked till the last page, this one was no exception.
I read it as fast as I could and found the story gripping and entertaining.
I liked the characters, well written and fleshed out, the well researched historical setting and the plot.
I look forward to reading other books by Ms Walters.
Highly recommended!
Many thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this ARC, all opinions are mine.
