The Great Mistake

By Mary Roberts Rinehart and Illustrated by Cover Art Rinehart, Mary Roberts

Book Overview

Love was the furthest thing from Patricia Abbott's mind when she met Tony Wainwright. Though he was heir to the Wainwright fortune and the magnificent family mansion known as the Cloisters, the rumors of his private revels hinted at a dark and sinister decadence. And there was something else -- a woman Tony never spoke about, hidden away in the shadows... a woman who was his wife. But it was already too late. As Tony drew her into a dangerous liaison, Patricia became enmeshed in an inescapable web of lies, secrets, and cold-blooded murder...

Romance and Mystery

Mary Robert Rinehart's The Great Mistake is a good commbination of mystery and romance. Her books are fairly humerous and I recomend them. The Great Mistake is not one of my favorites (I perfer Rinehart's The Circular Staircase) but still a good book worth taking a look at. One of the things I like about Rinehart is her 1st person narrative style. I like to see the story through a character's eyes.
