Fantastic read - By: M. HENNING, 01 Aug 2006
A gripping tale from the beginning. Great story from a great author. The main character will stay with you for a long time after you have put the book down.
Typically Catherine Cookson.. A great read as usual! - By: corgimom1031@aol.com, 08 Jun 2001
A fantastic book typical of the great lady. The book certainly held my interest from the very first page. As an avid Cookson fan, I may be a little one sided, but I have never read a "bad" Cookson, but this book would have been worth the price just for the dedication alone. To think she wrote the book when she was so ill! She will surely be missed!
One of Cookson's most fascinating heroines - By: S. DWYER, 29 Mar 2001
The Silent Lady is listed, sadly, as Cookson's final book. It is sad to think there will be no more posthumously published manuscripts from this wonderful author. The last book is clearly one of her best. While it departs somewhat from her usual style, having a little mystery connected with it, she depicts this heroine as someone I would reallly like to know better. Even more than the heroine, I think that her protector & the ownder of the boarding house is a fascinating character also. I did not want to put this book down as I definitely wanted to know how the heroine made out in the end. It is difficult to say much about the way the book progressed without giving away the plot. Take it from a long-time Cookson fan (I started reading Cookson's books when I discovered them in the 1970s) - this is one of the most fascinating & satisfying I have read.
