Secrets of Nanreath Hall

A Novel

De: Alix Rickloff

Narrado por: Lauren Irwin, Laura Waddell

Cornwall, 1940. Back in England after the harrowing evacuation at Dunkirk, WWII Red Cross nurse Anna Trenowyth finds herself unexpectedly assigned to Nanreath Hall—her dead mother’s childhood home. All Anna has left of her mother, Lady Katherine Trenowyth, are vague memories that tease her with clues she can’t unravel. Anna knows this could be the chance for her to finally become acquainted with the family she’s never known—and to learn the truth about
her past.

Cornwall, 1913. In the luxury of pre-WWI England, Lady Katherine Trenowyth is expected to do nothing more than make a smart marriage. When bohemian painter Simon Halliday enters her world, Katherine begins to question the future that was so carefully laid out for her. Her choices soon lead her away from the stability of her home and family toward a wild existence of life, art, and love.

As Anna is drawn into her newfound family’s lives and their tangled loyalties, she must decide if the secrets of the past are too dangerous to unearth . . . and if the family she’s discovered is one she can keep.

Predictable secrets

Even though the secrets revealed throughout the story were completely predictable, this is an entertaining story linking WWI and WWII through the respective experiences of mother and daughter. One narrator was great, the other just ok ( I didn't like the Over-broad Scottish accent).

Well done both narrators and Author !

Extremely pleasant surprise from this audio novel. Excellent story with well described scenes puts the listener in the middle of the war fallout while ascending to the "Secrets". Voices were well done and easily dicernable between characters. Writing was top notch leaving one wanting for more. Highly recommend.

great story!

I listen all day to books as I work outside on my property and this was one of those stories that made me sit and listen instead of work!!! As I am from England, some actor created accents and dialects bother me and although some of the narration was a little off the mark (for me) I still enjoyed the changes in characture voices.
