The Stormy Petrel

Rating:
Summary: Imagination soars in this romantic thriller-chiller. Yes!
Review: Well-described settings and realistic dialogues almost transport readers into a vacation complete with mystery and romance. Suitable for any age reader, this novel could breeze through a mind, freshening like the sea air itself. Mary Stewart was my first and still favorite novelist, beginning with the first edition of her first book, _Madam Will You Talk?_ which I have kept in my personal library. Most of my reading is of a scientific or utilitarian nature these days, but when I need renewal, a book like _The Stormy Petrel_ does it every time.
