King of the Castle - Victoria Holt

King of the Castle by Victoria Holt. Fontana 1973. Cover artist Renato Fratini

Front the back cover: "She came alone to the legend-haunted chateau, the castle of the notorious Comte de la Talle, deep in the wine country of France. From the moment Dallas Lawson arrived, she sensed an atmosphere of tension. She did not know that her arrival was a threat, that they did not want her in their midst, probing dark corners of the family mansion, lifting the dust from age-old family secrets..."

I've read Victoria Holt before, but I think this one is the best by far. I simply couldn't put it down. Make sure you have a few hours of undisturbed time before you open this one up! The plot, the characters are so deep that you can't help being pulled in and held there till the very last page. As many books as she has written, one never reminds you of another, they're all originals!

Slight surface scratching on cover.  Folding mark on front page. Light browning on thickness of pages, due to storage. Rest of book in good condition.

Postage and packaging R27.  Please allow 3 to 5 days for delivery and a tracking no will be issued within 48 hours of purchase.

Willing to combine postage with some of my other listed items, just add R5 for each additional item.
