After three years, Jace Montgomery is still grieving over his fiancée Stacy's mysterious suicide. He hasn't been interested in another woman since her passing, and her family still blames him for her death.
While flipping through one of her old paperbacks, Jace discovers a photo of a house stuck between the pages, bearing the cryptic message: "Ours again. Together forever. See you there." The note was dated the day before her death. Obsessed by the possibility of understanding her suicide, Jace seeks out the property—Priory House, a big brick fortress in Margate, England—and buys it.
It doesn't take long to learn that the house is haunted by a headstrong and feisty ghost, Ann Stuart, whom he must tangle with if he's ever to solve the mystery. Ann died under circumstances similar to those of his late fiancée, and he has a hunch that there is a connection between the two. Through his own investigations and with the help of a beautiful foreign correspondent, Jace is forced to reconcile his fiancée's life and her death. What follows is a satisfying and seductive discovery of both time and love by one of America's favorite storytellers.

Dagmara Dominczyk brings to life the haunting nature of this story--complete with ghosts and a mystery. After the suicide of his fiancée, Jace Montgomery purchases the English estate pictured in a photo he found tucked into one of her old paperbacks. He is determined to get to the bottom of her untimely death. Dominczyk creatively differentiates the novel's British characters. The halting speech she gives Jace reveals the sorrow and confusion surrounding his loss. His new love interest, a journalist, is given an educated yet down-to-earth voice--very different from the common accents of the servants and the clipped tones of local law enforcement. Dominczyk's narration highlights the characters' highs and lows, enhancing this listening experience. S.M. (c) AudioFile 2008, Portland, Maine -

In Deveraux's familiar latest, Jace Montgomery's fiancée, Stacy, commits suicide while they're vacationing in England—or so, three years after her death, everybody but Jace believes. The chance discovery of a letter Stacy received days before she died and a photo of Priory House in Margate, England—the village where Stacy committed suicide—prompt Jace to investigate. Finding Priory House for sale, Jace buys it despite its ugliness and expense. Dwelling in the house is the ghost of young Ann Stuart, who lived there in the 1870s and committed suicide just before her wedding. A local journalist, the beautiful and confrontational Nightingale Smythe, joins man and spirit in the search for the truth about Stacy and Ann's deaths. Deveraux never raises the pitch very high, and harmonizes the whole satisfactorily.
