A review by annarella
The Silken Rose by Carol McGrath

5.0

I found this story terrific, well researched and engrossing.
I didn't know a lot about the specific historical time and was happy to learn more while being entertained by this complex novel.
The mix of historical facts and fiction works well and the author did a great job in keeping them balanced.
The characters are well thought and the historical background is vivid.
An excellent read, highly recommended.
Many thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this ARC, all opinions are mine.
