Title: Adele Parks - a new Jeffrey Archer?
Review: I am a hard-to-please and at times overly intellectually critical reader but this book just blew me away. Adele Parks is surely up there with the grand masters of plot and tension - Barbara Cartland, Jeffrey Archer - yet has the powerful descriptive skills of, say, Angela Rippon in "Captain Mark Philips - The Man and his Horses". In addition she has an intuitive grasp of the character detail of her heroine Connie's utterly vacuous and pointless existence. Full marks.
