Paperback. Condition: Good. 630 pages. Cover wornReviews Barbara Devane, featured in th e author's Through a Glass Darkly (Books on TapeR, 1987), finds h erself a widow and her late husband's reputation ruined in Englan d of 1720. Traveling to Virginia, she manages her grandmother's p lantation, finding new friends, experiences, and greater maturity . After returning to London, she becomes caught up in Jacobite pl ots, court politics, and battles to restore her fortunes and take revenge on the men who destroyed her husband. This long producti on is helped by the narration of Sheila Hart, who handles all the voices well, regardless of the character's age, nationality, or gender. Hart brings expression, warmth, and real emotion to the n arrative. Despite her efforts, the story occasionally bogs down i n political detail. Nevertheless, fans of the first title should enjoy this sequel.'Melody A. Moxley, Rowan P.L., Salisbury, N.C. Rumpole and the Angel of Death by John Mortimer 7 cassettes. unab ridged. 91/2 hrs. Blackstone Audio Bks. 1996. #1751. $45.95. Mort imer's famous barrister (e.g., Rumpole on Trial, Audio Reviews, L J 7/95) returns in this collection of six tales. Rumpole is his n ormal crotchety self, and reader Frederick Davidson brings Rumpol e and his entire adversarial world to life with an astonishing ra nge of voices that never fail to delight and amuse. Nadia May rea ds one story as told by Rumpole's long-suffering wife, Hilda, or She Who Must Be Obeyed. This is an interesting collection that is enhanced by the right readers. Recommended for all mystery colle ctions.'Michael T. Fein, Catawba Valley Community Coll., Hickory, N.C. Ten years after Koen introduced heroine Barbara Devane in her bestselling debut novel, Through a Glass Darkly, she brings b ack the strong-willed young woman to face further challenges amon g the baroque world of the European and colonial American nobilit y of the early 18th century. The settling of America and the cour tly intrigues of the Jacobite rebellion in England serve as both backdrop and parallel for Lady Devane's path toward her own indep endence as an aristocrat and as a woman. Having been widowed at a ge 20, she has embarked for colonial Virginia, determined to deve lop a plantation there. Spunky and headstrong, she bristles when she is patronizingly described by one of her many admirers as a ` `fragile black butterfly''; anything but fragile, she takes lover s across political divides and frees her slaves against all advic e. These flamboyant gestures often seem shallow, however, and Lad y Devane's dismay at the treatment of the slaves in the New World characteristically seems more picturesque than humane. Koen does n't hesitate to make her heroine less perfect than conventional c haracters of this genre; Lady Devane comments in a rare moment of self-reflection that her pity for her favorite servant never led her to seriously consider his feelings. A pervasive tone of gent ility grounds the novel in its period, and Koen's smooth prose an d nicely integrated background details make this a superior histo rical romance.

For those of us who enjoy a novel that picks us up and sets us down in a different place and time, Now Face to Face is a gift. Filled with intrigue, adventure, suspense, and love, this is a beautifully written, completely satisfying saga." - Jean Auel. "One of the most beloved novels of our time, Through a Glass Darkly was an international bestseller and a publishing sensation, and it established Karleen Koen as a uniquely intelligent and gifted writer, and enchanting storyteller with the power to create the magic of another time and characters readers never forget. Like Through a Glass Darlky, Now Face to Face is breathtaking in its scope and richness of detail, sweeping readers away into the suspense, intrigue, and grandeur of a lost era - and into the sensuous and sophisticated lives of a vast and vivid cast of characters. At the center of Now Face to Face is a woman who is devastated by loss, yet is nevertheless determined to create a new way of living with dignity, adventure, and love. Beautiful, headstron Barbara Devane is a widow at twenty, emotinally devastated and financially ruined by the death of her husband in scandalous circumstances. In colonial Virginia, she struggles to develop a family tobacco plantation, and she finds, in this surprising society, betrayal and evil, and also her own strength and a new kind of purpose and bond. Returning to London, Barbara sets in motion an unorthodox plan to reestablish herself as a woman of property, confronting her enemies and regaining power and place. As the society around her erupts in political turmoil, she meets a mysterious, charismatic man and embarks on a deeply satisfying yet dangerous clandestine love. Written with the power found only in the best fiction, Now Face to Face is a rich and brilliant tapestry in which the heroine of Through a Glass Darkly returns, first in despair, then in triumph; it is a novel conceived and written on a grand scale, about coming of age and moving beyond past and present to meet life face to face." - from the inner front jacket flap.
