Can a house built from the ashes of tragedy ever be a place
of lasting happiness? Can the hereditary mix of wild gypsy
lore, fierce independence, magic and mystery truly settle in a
respectable home?

The Town House is the first in Norah Lofts' enduringly popular
Suffolk Trilogy about the Old Vine at Baildon. Built in the late
fourteenth century by Martin Reed, a runaway serf who had
defied his master for the woman he loved, the house was to
change and grow for six centuries. In its very foundations it
held secrets and lies, passionate love and deep despair.

The vast scope of The Suffolk Trilogy -- continued with The
House at Old Vine and The House at Sunset -- involves the reader
in a fascinating journey through time. In The Town House,
Norah Lofts evokes fourteenth- and fifteenth-century life from
the perspective of five different characters. Her sympathetic
touch and ability to imbue each character with life involves us
from the first to the last page. She convincingly recreates the
historical era in which each character lives, not merely to set
the scene but to add an understanding of why and how they
act as they do.
