Jennifer and Stephen are the main characters in this book. They uncover mystery and intrigue in a small village in the Pyrenees, with the action mainly focussing around a convent. Jennifer comes to see her cousin Gillian but is met with shocking news which makes her very suspicious.
This book has high drama, chases, danger, and a low-key romantic thread to break up the tension. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and wish it could have been longer. It was very well-written and exciting with a most satisfactory (though admittedly somewhat clichéd) ending.
I read this first in my teens and found it a little scary; re-reading it now I am perhaps more confident than I was then and would recommend it to anyone.
(You can also read my longer review of 'Thunder on the Right', written over fourteen years later when I re-read the book again).
