Customer Reviews

Geoffrey Staddon tries to repay a debt of dishonour.

A well plotted mystery, taut and suspenseful. The characters are well drawn and the story unfolds, twists and builds to a riveting conclusion. When it was over I literally breathed a sigh of relief. The setting is England and the Cote d'Azur in the Roaring Twenties. The novel is a richly woven tapesty detailing the lives of its characters through the eyes of Geoffrey Staddon, the architect of Clouds Frome. This is my first novel by Robert Goddard. I'm looking forward to the next one.

beware the title -- it is really "Debt of Dishonour"

Debt of Dishonour was the first Robert Goddard book I ever read -- I was hooked and read all the US-published titles. I ordered "Take No Farewell" and anxiously awaited reading it! I only read the first few pages when I realized it was, in fact, "Debt of Dishonour" -- published in England under another title! Alas . . . I'll just have to wait for Mr. Goddard to write another wonderful story!

THe listed "review" is actually about "Debt of Dishonor".

Please recheck your sources. If you look at "Debt of Dishonor", you will notice that it is the same synopsis.
