So now after 800+ pages of malign, spiteful baddies defeating every attempt by the nice characters to do good, finally, suddenly, it switches to favour the decent, everything goes right for them and wrong for the nasties . Eye roll.

Picked as a Book Group selection I was keen to read it as I enjoyed the earlier books. Not in the same league as Dorothy Dunnett or Hilary Mantel but escapist reading with an historical setting. Sadly it's something of a retread of those other novels with different names but same tropes. Nice decent people trampled all over by mean horrible but successful baddies...hey, is this a commentary on our current leaders?
