Reviews

Praise for AN ABSOLUTE SCANDAL: 'Buy on a Friday, get home, turn off the phone and emerge on Monday replete with a tale well told. Guilty pleasures We certainly all have them and this is better than most' -- Daily Express 'The bonkbuster is definitely on the rise again as fiction gets chunkier and glossier. But despite stiff competition from a new vanguard of younger and arguably hipper writers, there's one name that continues to reign supreme, Penny Vincenzi' -- Glamour 'This is a big book and aterrifically entertaining one. It's also highly addictive' -- Telegraph
