I certainly hope so Eve. I'm reading Reasonable Doubts just now. Didn't
really know where it was going when I started but I'm getting into it a bit
now I'm on the third volume. 

I've only ever read one book by Victoria Holt and that was Night Of A
Thousand Lanterns. It had a Chinese setting so I enjoyed it as I do all
books of that ilk. 

Incidentally notice I was complaining about the fact that Calibre Library
weren't sending me books off my list? Well a Calibre book arrived today and
it looks like a story by a Chinese author with a historical setting. Can't
remember the title just now but I shall get around to reading it soon.

Cheers.

Jim, I think you'll enjoy "Sisters by Rite".  I read it several years ago
but remember it very well.  Eve

Right now I'm reading a braille book, Reasonable Doubts by Joan Linguard.
It's not bad.  It's one of the old thistle books and it's in remarkable good
shape.  No.  347 if memory serves.  I have another book here by the same
author Sisters By Rite which I shall read soon.

On talking books I recently read books by Ian Rankin and Jdames Patterson
respectively.  Dead Souls and The big Bad Wolf.  Really good novels.

Regarding Calibre books.  Joanne Harris's Sleep Pale Sister was okay and
Margaret Forster's Over was not so bad.  I think I shall have to give them a
ring shortly.  They've been sending books not on my list, books by Miss Read
etc.  Maybe my list is running low.

Cheers nosw.
