[English Novel] Blue-Eyed Girl - Tara Moore

Target 8 buah novel dalam masa 3 bulan - mission accomplished kaedahnya. In fact less than 3 months. Sekarang berkira-kira sama ada diri berjaya atau tak untuk habiskan dua lagi novel. Target baru lah senang cerita. Dua novel lagi untuk saki baki bulan March ini. 

#1 Promises, promises - Erica James

#2 The Cradle Will Fall - Mary Higgins Clark

#3 Cujo - Stephen King

#4 The Chance - Karen Kingsbury

#5 Coco's Secret - Niamh Greene

#6 The Body in the Library - Agatha Christie

#7 The Salati Case - Tobias Jones

Bila cabaran 8 buah novel berjaya diselesaikan, dengan senang hati boleh ajak En. Barney untuk ke Putrajaya International Book Fair (PIBF 2015) yang bertempat di PICC penghujung March ini. Tapi sebelum I melencong lebih jauh, patah balik ke landasan yang betul iaitu novel Blue-Eyed Girl by Tara Moore. PIBF 2015 tu nanti-nanti lah. Kalau tak pun uolls boleh klik link PIBF tu.

Sinopsis Blue-Eyed Girl

Anya Keating loves her job as PA to Macdara Fitzgerald, owner of the stunning Lismore estate. But when he rashly proposes marriage, Anya is torn between her loyalty to Macdara and her feelings for his grandson Fergal. 

Then Orla, Macdara's long-estranged granddaughter, arrives. Orla has returned to Lismore a sophisticated and beautiful woman, able to enchant most men - and Anya can only watch with growing apprehension as she works her magic on Fergal. 

But Orla is not the blue-eyed girl people take her gor and life on the estate isn't perhaps as tranquil as it seems, A tragedy lies in her past, and she is determined to claim her birthright, no matter who stands in her way. 

Mula-mula, I ingat novel ni macam thriller whatsoever tu la. Tapi baca sinopsis rasa menarik. And indeed, memang best pun! 98% jalan cerita berlatarkan Lismore Estate. Pembunuhan, penipuan dan komplot semuanya bermula selepas kepulangan Orla ke Lismore. Setelah bertahun meninggalkan Lismore dan terputus hubungan dengan keluarga di Lismore, dia tiba-tiba pulang ke tempat asalnya. 

Apa motif sebenarnya Orla kembali semula ke Lismore? Apa kaitan pembunuhan yang berlaku dengan Orla. Adakah dia pembunuhnya? Tapi betul kah Orla kembali untuk merampas semula apa yang sepatutnya dimiliki olehnya?

Bagi I, novel ni memang 5 bintang lah. Suka pulak. Padat dengan macam-macam kisah. Anya dan Fergal. Fergal dan Orla. Macdara dan Lismore. Dan belum lagi kisah kuda-kuda. Nama pun estet kan? Especially twist di pengakhiran cerita tu yang best. Siapa sangka, Orla is Orla but not Orla. 

p/s : En. Barney PIBF ye? Hiks.
