Summer 1924: on the night of a glittering society party by the lake of a grand English country house, a young poet takes his life. The only witnesses are sisters Hannah and Emmeline Hartford, and they will never speak to each other again.

Winter 1999: Grace Bradley, 98, one-time housemaid of Riverton Manor, is visited by a young director making a film about the poet’s suicide. Ghosts awaken and memories, long consigned to the dark reaches of Grace’s mind, begin to sneak back through the cracks. A shocking secret threatens to emerge – something history has forgotten but Grace never could.

Set as the Edwardian summer finally surrenders to the decadent twenties, The House at Riverton is a multi-million-copy bestselling novel and one of the most successful debuts of all time.

This was quite the interesting read it took me awhile to get into it.
Maybe I was just distracted

I disliked the American woman's voice; found it very grating as I assume I was supposed to. The reader was very good. I loved the story and ending.

good story line

This book was not at all what I was expecting but as it resembled a very long episode at Downton (which I adore), I stuck with it. Grace and Hannah are very similar to Anna and Lady Mary (the narrator sounds almost identical to Mary when speaking Hannah's parts) and overall, with that as comparison, this made for an enjoyable listen. It's a rather undeveloped plot all on its own, though. The gothic mystery I was expecting was neither gothic nor mystery.

Phenomenal experience listening to this novel by Kate Morton! Her characters are written with such depth. They are complicated, flawed, real, and compelling. Fell in love with Grace the protagonist and sisters Hannah and Emmeline. The male characters were mostly doomed by being in the company of female power and grit. Nobody else writes like Kate Morton.

Stunning story and narration

Maybe I didn’t get the author’s intentions but the lack of original story and characters rendered the drama and it’s inhabitants two dimensional and unsympathetic.

A compilation of tropes and borrowed scenes

Loved the story, well researched from historical perspective. My only criticism with this audiobook is the narrator didn’t do justice to a couple of the secondary characters, Debra and Emmaline. They came across as too unlikable. But good storytelling

Great story

Didn’t like the narrator. Story is typical and long. Don’t understand the great reviews. Guessed the ending …..
