About this listen
The original writer of romantic suspense, Mary Stewart leads her readers on a thrilling journey across mid-century Europe in this tale of adventure and deception, sure to be loved by fans of Agatha Christie and Barbara Pym.
Vanessa March's husband, Lewis, is meant to be on a business trip in Stockholm - so why does he briefly appear in newsreel footage of a fire at a circus in Vienna, with his arm around another woman? Vanessa flies to Austria to find her husband, inadvertently becoming involved in a mystery that spans three countries...and the famous dancing stallions of the Spanish Riding School.
The moonlight flooded the meadow, blanching all colours to its own ghostly silver. The pines were very black. As the stallion rose in the last magnificent rear of the levande, the moonlight poured over him bleaching his hide so that for perhaps five or six seconds he was no longer an old broken-down piebald but a haute école stallion of the oldest line in Europe.

The utterly beautiful imagery
Liked absolutely everything about the book when I first read it about 50 years ago. Delighted to listen to this excellent reading of it.

A delightful ripping yarn.
Wonderfully enjoyable. The friendship between Tim and Vanessa was a delight, and Lewis' casual capability and the underlying mystery added to this mix to make this a very satisfying read.

Love this story as much as I did when I was 12
This story has everything from crime, spy and adventure to romance. And to top it all off the love and magnificence of the Lippazaner.
