From the author of The Frozen Lake comes an enthralling novel of love, betrayal, and idealism as three very different young women go up to Oxford in the years immediately before World War Two.

Vee - the clergyman’s daughter. Boyish, alluring, she plans to use her time at Oxford to put right everything that went wrong in her loveless childhood. Her friendship with Alfred introduces her to politics and the subversive attractions of secret societies; it will lead to her career as a secret agent, but at what cost to old loyalties and her true feelings?

Claudia, radiant, intense, aristocratic, is equally drawn to the secret society and one member in particular; his dazzling influence will see her travel to Berlin and come under the spell of fascism as war looms.

And Lally, glamorous daughter of an Irish-American senator, is sceptical of the society and the arguments from both sides.

I am very sad to read that the author has passed away. I was so looking forward to more books. She wrote simply but strongly. And delicately

Any additional comments?

I thoroughly enjoyed reading a Villa in Italy, however in The Voyage of Innocence, the author left no room for the reader to fill in the blanks. When I am reading, I like an author to give me a brief description of a scene and let me use my imagination to fill in the blanks. There was no chance in this book. Most scenes were over described. There were echos of Trollope in her style. However, Trollope almost goes too far, but he manages to stop. This being said, I love Trollope. I would not finished the book had it not been for the narrator. SHE IS GREAT.

Good story

This author’s prose is exceptional. The reader is very talented. I would have rated it more highly if I had found the main character Verity a more sympathetic person. Unfortunately Vee comes across as a combination of gullible and doggedly wrong-headed, coupled with a tendency to alternately preach her own gospel or to whinge about how her actions cause predictable outcomes. Would have enjoyed hearing more about the character Lally’s store. Still, well-worth the time devoted to it due to the excellence of the author.

Well Written Story About Pre-WW2 England and Ideologies

Not a fairy tale. If you're looking for a "soft story", this is not it. It is a book of the reality of our world. A warning to those who see the world in black and white that there are many shades of grey.

A much more real story than her usual plots.

Interesting story of young women in 30's Britain, and how they responded to the rise of both Fascism and communism.

Strong characters and good suspense story

I typically enjoy this author. As with her other works, the characters are rich and vivid - and numerous. Sometimes, it’s a little hard to keep up with them all. However, this story drags profoundly. In fact, I was able to skip 20 chapters and quickly surmise time and place, and all the pertinent information I’d missed to finish out the remaining chapters. It blissfully shortened the story, and I was thankful to not have endured the tedium that almost sunk the whole story.

Several hours too long

A wonderful look into the complexities of history, the passions of youth, and the earned wisdoms of maturity. The author is a wonderful storyteller and I appreciate her way of imparting depth without resorting to graphic violence of emotional manipulation.

Glad I ignored the bad reviews
