The Ivy Tree by Mary Stewart - June Nolen author of In Reverse Time

Mary Grey had come from Canada to the land of her forebears: Northumberland. As she savored the ordered, spare beauty of England's northern fells, the silence was shattered by the shout of a single name: "Annabel!" And there stood one of the angriest, most threatening young men Mary had ever seen. His name was Connor Winslow, and Mary quickly discovered that he thought she was his cousin—a girl supposedly dead these past eight years. Alive, she would be heiress to an inheritance Connor was determined to have for himself. This remarkably atmospheric novel is one of bestselling-author Mary Stewart's richest, most tantalizing, and most surprising efforts, proving her a rare master of the genre.

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.
