See Judys Review See Richards Review See Rose Tremain talk about her book Reading Group Questions Read our exclusive Q&A with Rose Tremain Write a Review for Trespass Judys Review Anthony Verey is a successful antiques dealer in his sixties & has become deeply disillusioned with his shallow glossy London life. His business once right at the top of the antique market tree is failing. He is conscious that his reputation & standing in his high society world is nosediving fast & he simply cannot stand to lose the carefully-acquired burnish of success. So unmarried & with no children gloomily aware that he is approaching old age he decides to visit his older sister who lives in the Cevennes region of France. Veronica is a moderately successful landscape gardener there; her partner Kitty a mediocre painter with dreams of artistic glory. Anthony decides to make a new start in France & falls in love with a beautiful old house which the owner has put up for sale. Here the story becomes very dark. For the owner
- an alcoholic old farmer who has let his land go to rack & ruin
- also has a sister; a proud & vengeful woman who is bitterly angry with her brother for wanting to sell their familys historic home to make money (which he refuses to share with her). What follows is a compelling murder mystery set in this ancient & mysterious part of France. Its themes of sibling love & hate family dysfunction ageing & bitter envy make it compulsive reading. Trespass is beautifully written with a terrific story & a wonderful sense of place. Richards Review "
