Adam Penhallow was a crusty patriarch who ruled over Trevellin from a wheelchair. He made life a misery for the dozen who lived in the great Cornish mansion, and everyone had reason to wish him dead. But who finally committed the murder? "An impressive drama".--London Times Literary Supplement.

I normally love Georgette Heyer, for her humor, historical accuracy, fun plots, endearing characters, bubbly style. But I have to say that Penhallow was not only a disappointment from start to finish, it was downright depressing. I could even say, appalling. One of the rare novels I couldn't bring myself to give even to a library sale, but tossed. Emotional cruelty abounds, not a likeable character among them, they're all either mean or weak, and the resolution of the story is weak as well. Thoroughly unsatisfying.
