About this deal

Like I said before, there is definitely a soap opera quality to the book as there is a lot of sleeping around, secrets, illegitimate children, love, betrayal, murder, etc. which make it an entertaining read. And when you add in an Irish castle as a setting, well how could I not love that? The story does bounce around quite a bit from character to character but for me the heart of the book was the story lines of JP and Martha. Definitely recommend especially if you are a fan of fiction from this time period and setting. De geruchtenmolen komt op gang dat er oorlog op komst is. Voor JP is dit een godsgeschenk, het is zijn manier om al zijn ellende te kunnen vergeten. Ook Celia keert terug na jaren in Zuid-Afrika te hebben gewoond. Samen met haar familie probeert ze weer een rustig bestaan op te bouwen in deze turbulente periode. Verdriet heeft de bovenhand met alle personages. Komt dit ooit nog goed en hoe zit het nu met de vloek van Maggie O’Leary??

Daughters of Castle Deverill By Santa Montefiore |The Works

I have a tendresse for sweeping and epic romantic sagas set around huge houses and aristocratic families and Santa Montefiore hits the spot for me like few other writers. This is the second book in her Deverill Chronicles, which follows the fortunes of Irish sisters, Kitty, Bridie and Celia, starts in 1925 and focuses on Celia's determination to restore Castle Deverill to its former glory. Lush, vivid storytelling' -- Sarra Manning * Red magazine, on Daughters of Castle Deverill * Inom familjen Deverill göms många hemligheter. Är egentligen Barton Deverill så oskyldig? Var har Digby fått sin stora förmögenhet ifrån? Orkar Harry hålla sin hemlighet för sig själv?

Synopsis

En esta ocasión es Celia quien roba mas protagonismo, como lo hizo Kitty en Canciones de amor y guerra, todos lo personajes muestran un grado de evolución maravillosa, pero es Celia quien después de que se tenga que enfrentar a tiempos difíciles, encontrara la fuera de los Deverill para salir a flote. Den förmögne Bridie har återvänt till sin barndoms by tillsammans med sin greve. Hon är fast besluten att hämnas sin barndom och kämpar för att ses som ståndsmässig. Santa heeft een fenomenale trilogie geschreven met alle nodige ingrediënten. Liefde, haat en nog meer van die rauwe emoties. Het is geen zoetsappig verhaal want ze heeft er veel intriges ingesloten. En ook hier hunkert iedereen naar het verleden en konden ze de klok maar terugdraaien! De tijd heeft vat op hen gekregen en ze moeten allen vergiffenis zoeken. Niemand blijft ongestraft in dit verhaal, niemand is vrij van schuld! Het is niet alleen fictie die je leest maar in dit verhaal zitten levenslessen waar je zelf bij stil staat. Het is een stormachtig relaas dat zich afspeelt in het ruige maar oh zo mooie Ierland.

If you are a fan of family saga type books you will love this series. It's a touch of Downton Abbey along with rural hard living families spanning a time period of 1925 to 1938 (book 2).

At first, I felt like I was missing so many pieces of the puzzle. I jumped right into the deep end of the pool without floaties on. Who is this person, and this person? There is some kind of curse and the castle is doomed? There was a fire and EVERYONE is connected to everyone in some twisted way. But dark shadows are gathering once more, as the financial markets start to shake. And everything that felt so certain is thrown once again into doubt. It is 1925 and the war is long over. But much has been lost and life will never truly be the same again.The Deverill’s have lost their castle to Bridie Doyle now Countess diMarcantonio. She was the daughter of the cook at the Deverill’s castle. She is now the mistress to the castle. How did this happen? Lots of drama to come. Castle Deverill, cherished home to the Deverill family in the west of Ireland for hundreds of years, has burned to the ground. But young and flighty Celia Deverill is determined to restore the sad ruin to its former glory. Celia married well and has the wealth to keep it in the family... and she cannot bear to see her beloved home stand neglected.
