Dear Rosemary
I have recently finished reading your “Woman of Noble Wit” which I bought when you brought the Lady Katherine to South Hill in June, and what a great read it was! I do most of my reading in bed, so often find myself with a book on the end of my nose having just managed a few pages - not so with yours! It kept me awake much longer than I should have been for several nights, and I loved it. Your style of writing is very engaging, and the quality and depth of your research makes the whole story come to life vividly. Thank you!
