Set In Stone - Softcover

ROBERT GODDARD was born in Hampshire. He read History at Cambridge and worked as an educational administrator in Devon before becoming a full-time novelist. He is the author of many bestselling novels, including Into the Blue which won the first WH Smith Thumping Good Read Award and was dramatised for TV in 1997, starring John Thaw.

Robert Goddard's compelling novels often require--and fully reward--a suspension of disbelief; SET IN STONE is no exception. Tony Sheridan's wife has died, having fallen (or been pushed?) from a cliff, and he goes to to live at Otherways with her sister and her sister's husband. The strange house changes all who live there, including Tony, in mysterious ways. Michael Kitchen does this complex story great credit, adding to it with a flawless reading, careful and consistent differentiation of fascinating characters, a deft touch of drama, and a kind of narrative reflection that perfectly matches the tone of the story.
