Vanessa March's husband Lewis is meant to be on a business trip in Stockholm.
So why does he briefly appear in newsreel footage of a fire at a circus in Vienna, with his arm around another woman?
Vanessa flies to Austria to find her husband - and inadvertently becomes involved in a mystery that spans three countries... and the famous dancing stallions of Austria's Spanish Riding School.
Get transported to 1950s Austria in this thrilling tale of adventure and deception from the queen of romantic suspense, Mary Stewart.

Much Knowledge Gained
Superior information about Lippizaners, their breeding and training. I felt at times I was right there in the story. Having been to Vienna and watched training and a live performance I feel fortunate. The same is true of having traveled a bit in Austria - it brings the story to life.

Mary Stewart was one of my favorite authors and this was one of my favorite books as a teenager. Finally they are available on the internet. Unbeatable stories set in exotic locations with smart interesting women in charge. More than partially responsible for my desires for a challenging career and international travel.
