Lady's Rock

De: Sue Lawrence

Narrado por: Angela Ness

A wronged woman’s voice is reclaimed in this gripping tale of revenge and romance—a medieval Gone Girl.

Highland Scotland was no place for a woman in the early 1500s. Life was turbulent and short, battles were waged, and sisters and daughters were traded as pawns in marriage. Catherine Campbell was one such young bride, betrothed to Lachlan Maclean and sent from her fine home to join him on the Isle of Mull, to bear his sons and heirs.

But Lachlan proved to be nothing like the man of Catherine’s dreams, and she was forced to resign herself to enduring life with him for the sake of duty. Until the day when he threatened to take away the one thing she couldn’t sacrifice: her daughter.

Casting a fascinating light on the ruthless Highlands, this sweeping drama by one of Scotland's best-loved novelists explores love, ambition and betrayal and highlights the precarious position of 16th-century women

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Sue Lawrence’s Lady’s Rock is a fascinating slice of Scottish history packed with high stakes power-play and bloody revenge. Chock full of gasp-inducing twists and turns!” (Sarah Smith, author of Hear No Evil)

“Lady’s Rock draws a tale from one of the dark corners of Scotland’s history and re-tells it in a way that is absorbing and vividly imagined. Clan feuds, love and betrayal, violence and vengeance – and all set against the peerless backdrop of the Scottish Highlands. Who can ask for more?” (Sarah Maine, author)

Great narrator

I don't usually leave reviews. First the good . It held my interest. Very descriptive I felt like I was there. It seems like a lot of research went into this book and that it was authentic to the time period. The narrator was amazing. I loved her voice. The bad... I have read a lot of books and I am not young so thousands. I have never disliked the heroine in a book as much as I disliked this heroine. This is definitely not a feel good happy ending book by any stretch of the imagination.
