About this listen
Favel Farrington meets Roc Pendorric on the idyllic Mediterranean island of Capri, where she was raised and lives with her father. Roc sweeps her off her feet, taking her from her home by an emerald sea to the ancient family home of the Pendorrics, in Cornwall. His sister and her family await them with open arms, welcoming young Favel. She is the much anticipated Bride of Pendorric, a name that amuses and flatters her.
The castle is beautiful in its way, but the atmosphere is foreboding. Roc's twin nieces begin watching her carefully; even the stones in the courtyard seem to have eyes. On the walls hang portraits of two other Brides of Pendorric-one of them Roc's mother-who died both young and tragically. Favel's fear increases as Roc seems to be growing more and more distant. Has her courtship and marriage been just a deception?
Soon Favel can no longer dismiss as accidents the strange things happening to her. Someone is trying to kill her and she must confront the very real dangers that surround her.

Mount Mellyn stood as proud and magnificent as she had envisioned. But what about its master—Connan TreMellyn? Was Martha Leigh's new employer as romantic as his name sounded? As she approached the mansion towering above the cliffs of Cornwall, an odd chill of apprehension overcame her. TreMellyn's young daugher proved as spoiled and difficult as the three governesses before Martha had discovered. But it was the girl's father whose arrogant demeanor unleashed unfamiliar sensations and turmoil—even as whispers of past tragedy and present danger begin to insinuate themselves into her life.

Mitford's most enduringly popular novel, The Pursuit of Love, is a classic comedy about growing up and falling in love among the privileged and eccentric.

We are introduced to the Radletts through the eyes of their cousin, Fanny, who stays with them at Alconleigh, their Gloucestershire estate. Uncle Matthew is the blustering patriarch; Aunt Sadie is the vague but doting mother; and the seven Radlett children, despite the delights of their unusual childhood, are recklessly eager to grow up.

Vanessa March's husband, Lewis, is meant to be on a business trip in Stockholm - so why does he briefly appear in newsreel footage of a fire at a circus in Vienna, with his arm around another woman? Vanessa flies to Austria to find her husband, inadvertently becoming involved in a mystery that spans three countries...and the famous dancing stallions of the Spanish Riding School. The moonlight flooded the meadow, blanching all colours to its own ghostly silver. The pines were very black.

Fabulous!
This book was awesome! It is definitely a Gothic mystery/romance. It reminds me a lot of the story, Rebecca, with little bits of a Downton Abbey type feeling. Excellent listen!

Timeless
I enjoy all of Victoria Holt’s novels. I’m so glad that the Audible versions give a new generation a chance to learn about her work and an older generation the opportunity to enjoy them again.

old fashioned gothic romance
what I liked about this book as well as Victoria holt,s other novels is that the heroines are strong and capable without being overbearing. I love the setting, in a huge mansion. of course. I first read Victoria Holt over 40 years ago and I still enjoy her work. it is a touch old fashioned and I'm not sure that young readers would appreciate it. But I am in my 50s and I most definitely enjoyed the story, and the creative and delicate unfolding of it.

Great Read
Enjoyed this book very much , great twists and turns as you struggle to understand the mysteries of Pendorac and its Brides. I find I am more and more frustrated with Nia e and weak female leads however although I tolerated this one ok. I would recommend this read to anyone!

More Victoria Holt ! But a different narrator
Love Victoria Holt ! More of her backlog, please. But this narrator just doesn’t do justice to the prose. Please, find another reader…
Maybe Karen Cass, British voice, highly under-rated.
