Cerestheories | Nov 8, 2021 |    ) SharleneMartinMoore | Apr 24, 2021 | The dead of Amy Robsart always makes for a good historical mystery and this novel is no exception. At times, I did think the parallels between the sixteenth-century story and the portions set in contemporary Britain were just a little too aligned, but overall the story works and had enough turns that I kept guessing how things might turn out until very near the end. I love the Tudor period, so I absolutely enjoyed this take on Amy Robsart's tale and I hope the author writes more mysteries set in this era. (  ) wagner.sarah35 | Nov 29, 2020 | The Forgotten Sister by Nicola Cornick picks up on the history of Amy Robsart's death and develops an entire two timeline story that incorporates history, love stories, sibling rivalries, celebrity lifestyles, mysterious deaths, and magical realism. This book is unusual in two timeline stories in that I find myself equally engaged in both stories. The book is a fast paced page turner that keeps me engaged until the very end.

In the tradition of the spellbinding historical novels of Philippa Gregory and Kate Morton comes a stunning story based on a real-life Tudor mystery, and of a curse that echoes through the centuries and shapes two women's destinies... 1560: Amy Robsart is trapped in a loveless marriage to Robert Dudley, a member of the court of Queen Elizabeth I. Surrounded by enemies and with nowhere left to turn, Amy hatches a desperate scheme to escape-one with devastating consequences that will echo through the centuries... Present Day: When Lizzie Kingdom is forced to withdraw from the public eye in a blaze of scandal, it seems her life is over. But she's about to encounter a young man, Johnny Robsart, whose fate will interlace with hers in the most unexpected of ways. For Johnny is certain that Lizzie is linked to a terrible secret dating back to Tudor times. If Lizzie is brave enough to go in search of the truth, then what she discovers will change the course of their lives forever. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
