Publisher's Summary

1995, London. When Sir James Harrison, one the greatest actors of his generation, passes away at the age of 95 he leaves behind not just a heartbroken family but also a secret so shocking, so devastating that it could rock the English establishment to its core. 

Joanna Haslam is an ambitious young journalist assigned to cover the legendary actor's funeral. The great and the good of the celebrity world are there. But Joanna stumbles on something dark beneath the glamour: the mention of a letter James Harrison has left behind, the contents of which others have been desperate to conceal for over 70 years. 

As she peels back the veil of lies that has shrouded the secret, she realizes that there are other forces attempting to prevent her from discovering the truth. And they'll stop at nothing to reach the letter before she does.

Fantastic read

A great story. Keeps you engaged and really hard to put down! Even when you think you know what’s coming you’re not sure and when the plot line opens up you are shocked. A great read that I highly recommend

Good but not my favorite from Lucinda Riley

This is my 3rd book by this author. I enjoyed it, but it is not my favorite out of the ones I have listened. One thing I like about her is the amount of details she adds about the plot and the characters. However, I spent most of the time a bit confused as to who was who. I think this time, it was too much detail and turns. Not crazy about the ending regarding some characters, you can see it coming.

Good listen to keep you entertained for a few hours but I only gave it 3 stars. The performance made the book for me. Camila Rockley did a great job.

Skip!

I usually love Lucinda Riley, but this story was slow, drawn-out, predictable, and rather boring.

Like a James Bond thriller!

Absolutely enjoyed this book! The climax was completely unexpected and it was full of twists and turns. The only thing I didn’t enjoy was the last line of the book. It made it feel like an Unfinished Symphony, and closed the book on a cliff hanger and I’m wondering if there’s a follow up book after this? I hope so but I don’t think so. I still give it 5 stars for everything because it was a terrific story and I enjoyed it immensely.

Awesome

The story was well read and written. Kept me turning chapters constantly with the will to find out more about the character Rose and Joanna. Mystery not revealed until the end of "The Love Letter." Wonderful story involving journalism, royalty and love.
