About this product
Product Information
Spanning four generations and two very different cultures, it sweeps from the glittering palaces of the great maharajas of India to the majestic stately homes of England, following the extraordinary life of a girl, Anahita Chaval, from 1911 to the present day . . . In the heyday of the British Raj, eleven-year-old Anahita, from a noble but impoverished family, forms a lifelong friendship with the headstrong Princess Indira, the privileged daughter of rich Indian royalty. Becoming the princess's official companion, Anahita accompanies her friend to England just before the outbreak of the Great War. There, she meets the young Donald Astbury - reluctant heir to the magnificent, remote Astbury Estate - and his scheming mother. Eighty years later, Rebecca Bradley, a young American film star, has the world at her feet. But when her turbulent relationship with her equally famous boyfriend takes an unexpected turn, she's relieved that her latest role, playing a 1920s debutante, will take her away from the glare of publicity to the wilds of Dartmoor in England. Shortly after filming begins at the now-crumbling Astbury Hall, Ari Malik, Anahita's great-grandson, arrives unexpectedly, on a quest for his family's past. What he and Rebecca discover begins to unravel the dark secrets that haunt the Astbury dynasty . . .Product Identifiers

Compelling Read
Absolutely loved this book. I've read two other Lucinda Riley novels and feel you can't go wrong with this author as each one has been a compelling read and totally different subjects. This one moves between India and England with unforeseeable twists and turns which makes it hard to end one chapter without starting the next! At 600+ pages it has the expanse to develop the complex storyline spanning from just before the first world war to present date. Read and enjoy.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

I really am not sure why this book is called The Midnight Rose.......rather confusing.
This is one of L.Riley's earlier books.I found it interesting and enjoyable but slightly confusing with the characters. I much prefer her more recent books. She is a good writer.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Midnight rose
Yet another fantastic book from this amazing author. Absolutely compelling and gripping novel from Lucinda Riley. She's got to be the cleverest I've ever read and can bring the imagination alive every time with twists and turns, swapping from one era to another and then bringing it all together at the end. Fantastic.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Another great read by Lucinda Riley
I came across Lucinda Riley by chance when I bought one of her books at the airport for my holiday read. I am now on my 5th book written by her and it is so far another great novel with great research and detail to make you feel as though you are in the story yourselfVerified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Excellent title suits the story
Story was amazing, you didn't want to put it down as you wanted to know how the story would end. The story took you right up to the last page which is unusual in a lot of books. Would certainly recommend this book, think it is one of her best.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
