Excellent.

Cordelia has the virtues of readability, of convincing motive and
emotion and of vivid background . . . all the excellent Victorian
ingredients – guilty love, surrender, pathos and comedy. It is
enthralling from start to finish, a beguiling journey backwards in
time.
*Scotsman*
From the incomparable Winston Graham . . . who has everything that
anyone else has, then a whole lot more
*The Guardian*
The strength of Graham's writing lay in its tremendous narrative
power
