Synopsis "The Last Baronet"
What could be nicer than a traditional English house party at a baronial hall in deepest Suffolk? Prospective guests may dream of huge log fires, squashy leather chairs, fine dining, twinkling candles and the chink of decanters, but will the transformation of a crumbling ancestral ruin into a comfortable country hotel be completed in time (if indeed at all) given the emotional and financial turmoil that has accompanied the renovations? And how can the guests possibly know, having organised their holidays for their own personal reasons - some sad, some desperate, some funny and some plain murderous - that their lives will be changed forever by the experience. Anyone who has ever read Caroline Akrill will know that they are about to be hugely entertained. This great gin-and-tonic of a novel will intrigue, delight and make you laugh out loud. The rich cast of skillfully drawn human, equine and canine characters, sometimes deranged, often hilarious but always endearing, will stay with you long after the book is finished. From reviews of Caroline Akrill I absolutely loved this book. It made me laugh. It made me cry. I loved the dark comedy of it all; the brilliance of the dialogue and the sharpness of the characterization. Jane Badger. BOOKS & MUD Caroline Akrill will make you burst out laughing on a bus full of people who will think you've flipped. IRISH TIMES A gorgeous, delectable Christmas pudding of a book. It's terrific. Karen Bush. AUTHORS ELECTRIC The Last Baronet is an absolute delight. The characters are brilliantly observed. I enjoyed the sheer style and elegance of the narrative - it's so wonderfully written. I can't remember when I enjoyed a book so much. Susan Price. Carnegie Medal winner. Caroline Akrill is never dull. She writes with sympathy, understanding and knowledge plus a balance of humour, excitement and grief. HORSE & HOUND
