Not my fave PC book, but it comes pretty close!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
I loved Victoria Holt books but I disliked the Jean Plaidys; so when I found out there was another name and that my aunt had most of the books, I was excited! I'm missing the first three and my series ends with this one, but I'll find the first and last books someday. "Song of the Siren" is my favorite PC book, and "The Changeling" probably comes pretty close. I didn't expect the ending!! Great book, great series. I'm eagerly awaiting the others!!
Philippa Carr is also known as Victoria Holt !

A story of love, envy, passion and betrayal, by Britain's famed historical romance novelist. Fatherless since birth, young Rebecca Mandeville soon becomes motherless as well, left with her infant sister, Belinda, in the custody of Benedict Lansdon, the stepfather she despises. As Rebecca grows into a clever beauty and Belinda into a hellion determined to get her way at all costs, another child, Lucie, is added to the household. Together they make a complex triangle laced with affection but also with jealousy. And when Benedict remarries, family tensions erupt in one catastrophe after another- blackmail, scandal, devastating accusations and the hint of passion made violent. But it isn't until Benedict's new wife disappears, amid cries of murder, that Rebecca and Benedict, together, are able to pick up the pieces of the shattered family to which both are bound. Rich in historical detail, this book is an evocative portrait of victorian England by one of England's greatest storytellers. You won't be disappointed !
