fitgirl2008 Posted March 22, 2015 Report Share Posted March 22, 2015 A Dark Adapted Eye - by Barbara Vine mp3 | English | 243 MB This is a very good novel with a genuinely compelling plot. The story of Vera Hillyard and her sister Eden is brilliantly unfolded through the reminiscing of their niece Faith, remembering the twists and turns that lead up to a shocking murder. The identity of the murderer and the victim is revealed in the first chapter, yet I was left shocked and stunned by the final pages. The author completely recreates the fine line between love and hate and the dangers and compulsions of obsessive love. England during World War II is the nostalgic yet oppressive setting with stifling middle class family life providing the key atmosphere of the novel. By the end of the story I found myself truly believing in Vera, Eden and Faith as real characters with feelings, motives and the desperate tie of family relationships. Nothing is ever clear cut and simple and the terrible price of love is paid at the end of the story.(K.Smith) http://ul.to/ooo4rj1v http://ul.to/t2ec5fb3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
