The House on the Cliff

Written by D.E. Stevenson

Narrated by Candida Gubbins

Suddenly Glen Siddons turned his head and saw her . . . and smiled to her. He had smiled to her as if they two were alone in the world and she had fallen in love with him then and there.' Elfrida Jane, accustomed to the energetic life of a small-part actress, finds life at Mountain Cross very different. At first her mother's old cliff-top house seems lonely and bleak, compared to the glitter and bustle of the theatre. But Elfrida has plenty of courage and soon settles down to enjoy herself. Then, suddenly, her peace is shattered. To the house on the cliff come unexpected visitors from the world of the theatre - a world Elfrida thought she had left behind forever . . .

[Cynthia Cook · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

One of Stevenson's best books. Everyone loves to hear of a down and trodden female who makes it well in life.
