The Last Deception of Palliser Wentwood
About the Author:
Imogen de la Bere divides her time between England and New Zealand, where she has built up a following for her writing on a diverse range of subjects, from theatre, through opera and rock music, to matters of religion. Originally a scholar of Elizabethan popular prose, she found surprisingly few openings in this area, and so resigned herself to a lifetime as a computer consultant, a professional calling that has so far provided no material whatsoever for her fictions.

Book Description Paperback. Palliser Wentwood, dangerously charming, has run away to England, leaving his farm in New Zealand, his beautiful wife Salome, his daughters, and his many creditors. Palliser is in search of a fortune, enough to restore the prosperity of farm and family.In Thule Hall, Herts, live the Lovelaces, Hubert and Blanche, brother and sister, both splendidly tall and fleshy, shy and gothically retired. Engaged as a butler, and posing as a grieving widower, Palliser turns his charms on Blanche, teasing out laughter and beauty where before there was only timidity.But will his deception succeed? Can he bring himself to ruin her? Or, back in New Zealand, will Salome succumb to the gentle siege of Philip Butterworth, solicitor and suitor?This is an exceptional first novel, wise and funny and sad in equal measure, and peopled by a cast of characters as singular as they are delightful. This is a used book in good condition, meaning that it shows signs of wear but has no major defects.Most of our images are sourced automatically, so the book cover shown might be different to the edition we have in stock. {"length"=>["22"], "width"=>["14"], "units"=>["Centimeters"]}.
