An Oldie but a Goodie!

I just turned the last page of my last book read in 2021. I haven't read such a nail-biting suspense novel in decades. This was a story that surely was more than meets the eye!!

One young couple are on their honeymoon at an Inn owned by an Count in the mountains of Austria. Another middle-aged couple also staying at the inn, have returned for their annual visit so the husband can enjoy exploring the vast underground caves nearby.

The tale blends a serious look at the philosophy of life, love, and the pursuit of happiness, a scandalous love affair between one of the wives and the Count, and a death-defying journey underground when all five key players are imprisoned there due to a foolish mishap.

I couldn't put this vintage 1968 novel down. I don't think I breathed at all during the last quarter of the book! Ebay has quite a few cheap paperbacks to offer if you wish to give it a try! ( )
