Henry didn't turn back when Francesca needed him twenty years before. Now, on some sort of journey to anchor his soul, he arrives in her home town of Warbling and discovers that she's even further beyond his reach - serving a life sentence for the murder of her child. Still intrigued by her, and entranced by his memories, he becomes drawn into the town and the people who knew her far better than he - her cousin, her lawyer, her closest friend, Angela, whose adopted daughter Francesca had helped her acquire. He finds himself a lodger in the House of Enchantment, an eccentric boarding house run by two gays who believe the comfort of their guests is above profit. And he finds himself incapable of believing that Francesca is a killer, even if she did confess her crime in chillingly logical detail. But if it wasn't her, then who? Peopled with richly quirky and original characters, this is a novel of suspense in which the truth is better left unknown.

Seller's Description:
None. Fine in Fine jacket. A smart first edition of this romantic thriller from Frances Fyfield. Neatly signed by the author to the title page. Featuring the original unclipped photographic dustwrapper. Gary J. McCallum noted in the Armchair Detective (1995, 3: 28), "The defining feature of Fyfield's novels is their astonishing generosity of spirit, which may seem somewhat incongruous given her subject matter: insanity, incest, violence (often murder), emptiness, suicide--all at the darkest extreme of human experience. Yet each of her characters is accorded a distinctive voice, that humanises even the most unregenerate of them." In original publishers' cloth binding with original unclipped dustwrapper. Externally, both cloth and dustwrapper are smart. Internally, firmly bound, bright and clean throughout. Author's signature to the title page. Fine.
