<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Historical novel by the late Norah Lofts covering 400 years' history of a house, from Queen Elizabeth I to the 1950s, and the people and families who lived there. Their hopes, their heartbreaks and the house which affected their lives and fortunes.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>The beautiful house was built for a pirate rewarded by Good Queen Bess for the plunder that he brought home. But tragedy was born within its walls before Thomas Rowhedge even took possession and its memory remained in an icy atmosphere of despair by the window seat in the hall.</p><p>It was home to a witch who could charm animals and a ghost who challenged everything but true love. It was filled with hope and heartbreak for four hundred years. It saw the passing of the Civil War and the restoration of the King. It became rich with an Indian Nabob and poor with a 20th century innkeeper. It tested every soul that entered it and gave no quarter to those it found wanting.</p><p>The house was Merravay and it would always call back its own to try and complete the dance of love broken so cruelly as soon as its cornerstone was laid.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p><em>Lofts is a compelling storyteller...
