Descrizione


An unforgettable timeslip novel perfect for fans of Barbara Erskine. ‘A king adorns the throne… He has no subtlety, no grace but he does not deserve to die in the way that has been planned and this is why we shall stop them, our men, our kin and save us all’ 1605 Bess Throckmorton is well used to cunning plots and intrigues. With her husband Sir Walter Raleigh imprisoned in the Tower of London, and she and her family in a constant battle to outwit Robert Cecil, the most powerful man in the country who is determined to ruin her, Bess decides to retreat to her beloved home, Crestwell Hall. But there she is shocked to hear talk of a new plot to murder the king. So, unbeknownst to their menfolk, the wives of the plotters begin to work together to try to stop the impending disaster. Present Day Isabella Lacey and her daughter, Emily, are excited to be starting a new life at her aunt’s home, Crestwell Hall in Wiltshire. During renovations, Isabella discovers an ancient bible that once belonged to Bess Throckmorton, and to her astonishment finds that it doubled as a diary. As Isabella reads Bess’s story, a new version of the Gunpowder Plot begins to emerge - told by the women. When Emily’s life is suddenly in terrible danger, Isabella understands the relentless fear felt by Bess, hundreds of years ago. And as the fateful date of 5th November draws ever closer, Bess and the plotters’ wives beg their husbands to stop before a chain of events is set into action that can only end one way… This unforgettable timeslip novel is perfect for fans of Barbara Erskine, Elena Collins and Diana Gabaldon. Readers LOVE Alexandra Walsh: 'There is a genuine 'well, I wasn't expecting that!' twist in the final chapter, which brings together several stands that kept me guessing. I highly recommend The Secrets of Crestwell Hall, which I'm happy to award five stars.' 'From start to finish I did not want to put this book down.' 'I had to keep reading, way past my bedtime. Loved every bit of this story, didn't want it to end.' 'This book is really easy to read, the writer’s style approachable and engaging and will delight fans of historical fiction. I absolutely loved it, probably more than the last one, and have no hesitation in recommending it to anyone who enjoys this genre.' Praise for Alexandra Walsh: 'If you love timeslip stories with an intricate and intriguing historical thread, then this is for you. If you think you know everything about the Gun Powder plot, then think again! Alexandra Walsh has a completely fresh take on one of the most notorious episodes in English history. A fascinating page-turner' Sarah Bennett 'Alexandra Walsh’s best book yet, with strong echoes between the historical and present day timelines. The history is impeccably researched, bringing an entirely new angle to The Gunpowder Plot, and how it might have played out for the women behind the scenes' Eva Glyn 'Alexandra Walsh weaves a perfectly crafted dual timeline tale that will enthral and delight the reader from the first words until the very last sparkling moment' Elena Collins 'I absolutely loved this beautifully written and characterful novel which intrigued me as it moves seamlessly between 1900 and the present with a throwback to Theseus and The Minotaur of ancient Crete’ Carol McGrath 'Alexandra Walsh is a master storyteller and does historical time hops so well. The mystery, the intrigue and beautiful storytelling is ever present in* The Forgotten Palace*, as it is in all Alex’s novels. The plot, mixed with the Greek mythology, and characters make her latest fiction another masterpiece and one that stays with you a long time after you turn the last page’ Michelle Rawlins
