On The Night of the Seventh Moon<\/em> under her pen name Victoria Holt.<\/p>\nThe book waves the tale of Helena Trant, a girl who loves the Black Forest, the legends, the castles, and the lore of the Seventh Moon. As a school girl she falls in love with the legendary Siegfried, who spirits her away to his hunting lodge. Her virtue intact thanks to a zealous housekeeper, Helena returns to her school. After her father dies, she\u2019s left to the care of her father’s sisters Aunt Caroline and Aunt Matilda.<\/p>\n
Helena returns to the Black Forest to find the man who haunts her dreams. Again on the night of the Seventh Moon they connect. He whisks her away again. This time he marries her, and they\u2019re together for days. When she goes back to her relatives she\u2019s told that what she thinks happened didn\u2019t. Did she somehow lose six days of her life or is what happened what she thinks? According to ancient Black Forest legend, Loke, the god of mischief, is abroad in the world on the night of the Seventh Moon.<\/p>\n
“I consider myself extremely lucky to have been born and raised in London,” said Eleanor Hibbert, who was born in Kensington in 1906. “To have on my doorstep this most fascinating of cities, with so many relics of 2000 years of history still to be found in its streets.” Hibbert said one of her greatest pleasures was exploring London.<\/p>\n
As Victoria Holt, Hibbert wrote spine-tingling novels of romantic suspense. On the Night of the Seventh Moon is mystical and mystifying at the same time. Hibbert’s stories show the different class distinction of someone from the aristocracy, or someone from the merchant class, or a governess,\u00a0 falling in love, similar to Jane Austen and the class distinction in her novels. Seventh Night is a mystery and romance.<\/p>\n
Seventh Night is a fast read. The beginning draws you right into the story, the middle is slower and a little repetitive, but then it picks up again. This is a reprint of a book last printed in the 1970s.<\/p>\n
