Montefiore does a great job of including pieces of background from the previous novel to ensure an easy transition for the reader.

She knows she must speak to the current Lord Deverill – JP – if she is to uncover the secrets of the past. Montefiore also adds another locale, by basing an additional story thread in South Africa, allowing her to contrast all three settings. And the exceptionally compelling, well-paced plot is filled with familial dynamics, drama, emotion, self-discovery, secrets, revelations, love, loss, heartbreak, courage, duty, and passion all surrounded by authentic historical events of the time.

All the characters from the first book are here with the addition of new off spring as the years progress.

I didn't really like the ending, it was too much destiny for me, and the epilogue was just random in my opinion. There's nothing better than sinking into a novel and empathising with the characters as they journey through the novel, experiencing both ups and downs.

Castle Deverill, cherished home to the Deverill family in the west of Ireland for hundreds of years, has burned to the ground.

Although it is not essential to have read the first book, Songs of Love and War, to enjoy The Daughters of Castle Deverill, I believe it enhanced my reading experience. She converted to Judaism in 1998 and married historian Simon Sebag Montefiore in the Liberal Jewish Synagogue in London. A compelling story of family and history, from the author of the top ten bestseller Songs of Love and War . It is a novel that is grand in scale, as it also traces the heritage of the Deverill Castle and its inhabitants, back to the time of the reign of King Charles II.

I came into The Daughters of Castle Deverill, the second book in a series written by established British author Santa Montefiore, having just read its predecessor, Songs of Love and War. Born in England in 1970 Santa Montefiore grew up on a farm in Hampshire and was educated at Sherborne School for Girls.The story started moving, and the pieces started making sense together–I still felt like I was playing catch up the whole time, though. Daughters of Castle Deverill began just where Songs of Love and War left off and it took this epic drama to another level. The ethos of the books is somewhat modern bearing in mind the period described, having witchcraft, adultery, homosexuality, ghosts and murder in the story.
