Title: Woman's history set back 1000 years!
Review: I love Victoria Holt! I have read most of her books. This book was great right up to the rape scene. I feel that I am not giving anything away since the other reviewers mentioned this aspect to the plot already. I thought that the character would grow and develop from this experience but in the end she is still a victim! The ending of the book was terrible as well. It was as if the author had five minutes to write an ending and just wrote whatever came to mind. My eighth graders would have come up with a better ending. Borrow this from the library and buy The Silk Vendetta or The Night of the Seventh Moon. They are both excellent books.
