About this title

Synopsis

During the fateful summer of 1914, when the clouds of war were gathering, Lord Anthony Greville gathered together his family at his manor house for one last round of parties, teas, dances, and romance

Review

“A capacity to shock, to astonish, and to engage . . . written throughout with economy and wit.” (New York Times Book Review)

“Swift and startling power . . . moving . . . entertaining . . . can absorb you into its fictional landscape as easily as Alice passing through the looking glass.” (Chicago Tribune Book World)

“Well-written, exciting . . . echoes of Hemingway, Graves, and ‘Upstairs, Downstairs,’ with characters who breathe and about whom one cares.” (Library Journal)

“Spellbinding. This is really a start-reading-and-don’t-stop-until-you’re-finished-novel.” (Publishers Weekly)

“Every twenty-five years or so, we are blessed with a war novel, outstanding in that it depicts not only the history of our time, but also its soul.” (West Coast Review of Books)

“Fascinating . . . a timeless tale of the conflicts that emerge from a violent change. It is a delight to read.” (Cleveland Press)
