June Nolen author of In Reverse Time
Mary Stewart has a special way with words. She can turn a noun into a verb and describe a scene in a way that makes you a part of the scenery. Her knowledge of local flowers and their smells brings you right into the book with the characters.
This is a love story of a young married man and a very young woman who leave letters for each other in the Ivy Tree. Because of the circumstances, the young woman, Annabel, leaves her home and returns years later not knowing what she will find. Her introduction into the family is through a secret held together by greed. Annabel returns to be with her grandfather again. There is a chase against time and on horseback. Mary Stewart always has a chase in her books and this one is especially well written with emphasis on trust between rider and horse. This is definitely one of Mary Stewart's best work.
