READER REVIEWS FOR TWISTS OF FATE
5-STARS - A family who seem to have it all find that old sins cast long shadows…
November 10, 2025
"As a fan of Ann Thorsson’s Castle Ridge books I was delighted to receive a signed copy of this latest paperback edition. I honestly couldn’t put it down! What a page turner- with not one but quite the rollercoaster of twists in the tale. As ever, the characters are authentic to the location and time, with just the right amount of colloquial language to establish that Derbyshire context without making the story inaccessible to a wider readership. I love, love, love the descriptions of locations and events of that time and place. I highly recommend this book which can be enjoyed as a stand alone- or better still after reading the previous three novels. Please keep writing the Castle Ridge books Ann - I’m hoping there will be another to add to my collection soon."
5-STARS - Fabulous, gripping read

"Twists of Fate...superb gritty 4th book from Ann, based in Castle Ridge. This is the 4th book but can be read as a stand alone story. All four books are totally absorbing with believable characters set in believable environments but all is not what it seems. Totally recommend this book. Excellent work Ann."
5-STARS - Brilliant addition to the Castle Ridge series.

"Very good and enjoyable read by an exceptional author. I live local to where Castle Ridge is based so my Kindle has so many highlighted parts in it from the area and moments from my own past. So many twists in this book - when you think you know where the story is heading there is another OW moment to keep you gripped. Brilliant book and a great addition to the Castle Ridge series."
