Hephzibah Anderson, in last Sunday's Observer, was less than excited by a batch of recent 'crossover' novels, saying of Charmian Hussey's The Valley Of Secrets, for example: "The prose lacks sparkle, however. There is something stubbornly one-dimensional about its simplicity, something fogeyish about its reactionary retreat into a rural idyll."
