Product Description:
Lucy Cartwright placed her life and future into the hands of the dashing Baron Clare, despite the rumors of his dark, unsavory past. Trusting his kind words and gentle manner, she agreed to be his wife and followed the enigmatic lord to Greygallows, his sprawling country estate. But mystery, deception, betrayal, and danger surround the magnificent manor—a ghostly secret charges the atmosphere and terror reigns in its shadowed hallways. Lucy entered Greygallows willingly . . . and now she may never leave.

Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Couldn't Wait To Get To The End
I buy these books to read on my lunch hour when I'm working, in order to pass the time. I usually don't read at home, because my time is so limited. Greygallows is the first book I've read by Barbara Michaels, and after the first 150 pages, I brought the book home and finished Greygallows that night. I couldn't put it down! Full of suspense!
Rating:  - Disappointing at best
I buy these books to read on the beach or on airplanes, so i am not expecting anything other than an entertaining read. Even with these low standards, I found this book derivative and not even a very good copy at that.
Rating:  - GOTHIC SUSPENSE...
This is a novel in the gothic tradition and one that fans of Victoria Holt will enjoy. The events in the book take place in the first half of the nineteenth century. Young Lucy Cartwright finds herself orphaned at the age of seven, after a terrible carriage accident kills both her parents and leaves her with a permanent limp. Sent to a school for girls in Canterbury, England, Lucy is spoiled by the headmistress, who caters to Lucy's whims. After all, the pretty Lucy is heiress to a vast fortune. ... Read More
Rating: - Not Her Best - But Not Bad
This was not one of Mrs. Michael's best works, but it still wasn't half bad. I enjoyed it, even though it was a slow read. I found it interesting, but didn't have any trouble putting it down. The ending was very climactic, but after the slow pace set in the previous pages the ending felt way too rushed.
Rating:  - Good author, plodding book
This was my first time reading a book by Barbara Michaels. I thought the basic story was good, however the book read very slowly. I certainly wasn't kept in suspense. The characters really didn't flesh out well until very far into the book, just past the half way through point. Once the seemingly endless process of getting Lucy married off is over and the story focuses on Greygallows, the pace picks up and the plot of the story takes form. I will give the author another try, but wouldn't recommend ... Read More
