Resumen del Editor

A hidden note. A lost love. A second chance....

From the number one best-selling author of The Letter, Kathryn Hughes, comes The Key, an unforgettable story of a heartbreaking secret that will stay with you for ever.

1956

It's Ellen Crosby's first day as a student nurse at Ambergate Hospital. When she meets a young woman admitted by her father, little does Ellen know that a choice she will make is to change both their lives for ever....

2006

Sarah is drawn to the now abandoned Ambergate. Whilst exploring the old corridors she discovers a suitcase belonging to a female patient who entered Ambergate fifty years earlier. The shocking contents, untouched for half a century, will lead Sarah to unravel a forgotten story of tragedy and lost love, and the chance to make an old wrong right.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"A wonderful, enthralling story; one that I didn't want to end." (Lesley Pearse on The Key)

"Gripping." (Good Housekeeping on The Secret)

"Hughes creates a sense of time and place effortlessly. The social context is incredibly important and once again, conveyed so well that the reader feels immersed in the world of Ambergate. Even though some of the story is set in the past, it still feels relevant and still raises questions about attitudes to mental illness, trauma, motherhood and grief." (Bibliomaniac on The Key)

Excellent.

I was completely enraptured by this book. I typically enjoy the multiple character perspective books, but this was great because the author stuck with one longer than just a chapter. When reading I don't find the rapid switch as difficult, but for audio I do- the author wrote this perfectly for an audio book. The story was amazing overall and I definitely recommend. Separately, I usually don't like Bristish narrators, but for some reason I really enjoyed this one.

Truly amazing

As with her other suspenseful romantic novels, this one is unsurpassable. It journeys the heart from beginning to end with unexpected fulfilling summary. Thank You.

Wonderful storytelling

This is my most favorite kind of books! A story that holds your interest from the beginning! Sara's need and desire to research an old insane asylum, brings to light the stories of horror and kindness. Worth a credit!!

To do this is the time when so many things were planned not to help so many who would be struggling with mental illnesses. The time of this story is when so many things were going to happened to everyone. Some of this took time when so many things were set aside in the mental hospital. The care that was going on to the health of the patients. Who were suffering from some type of mental disorder. There was Amy who was there with her problems, and no one would believe her.
This story was telling in difference parts of the story when there were some things were going on with. Traditional time people were there for finding difficult things to help patients. Who was left asIde with mental abuse and what was going on with them.

Bittersweet and haunting

This is such a sad story, but I loved it. There is a good ending of sorts, but the lives of the people in this asylum haunts me. This story is definitely an eye opener to what institutional life was like not so long ago.

Good story, but not great.

This was not as good as either The Letter, or The Key. The research that went into this was very evident which enhanced the minute details of the time. The story itself was just not as fresh as the other two.
