Summary

A secret hidden in the past.

A family bound by a dark legacy…

Ever since her sister disappeared eleven years ago, Serena Warren has been running from a ghost, haunted by what she can’t remember about that night.

When Caitlin’s body is discovered, Serena returns to her grandfather’s house, nestled beside the ruins of Minster Lovell Hall in Oxfordshire, determined to uncover the truth. But in returning to the place of her childhood summers, Serena stands poised at the brink of a startling discovery – one that will tie her family to a centuries-old secret…

Taking listeners from the present day to the Wars of the Roses in the 1400s, and with an enthralling mystery at its heart, The Last Daughter is a spellbinding novel about family secrets, perfect for fans of Lucinda Riley, Victoria Hislop and Kate Morton.

A thoroughly enjoyable read

Having driven past Minster Lovell many times and knowing the connection to Francis Lovell I was intrigued by this story and it didn’t disappoint.

Beautifully written with interesting characters and a plot that captivated the reader. The ending was teased throughout the book and for those with an interest in Richard III the clues provided a suitably subtle bread crumb trail. The link was tantalising obvious but how exactly the author wove the story from the 15th century to modern day Oxfordshire was a delight.

My only slight criticism would be the voice of Aunt Polly - a little over the top but not enough to spoil the flow.
