About the Book

Love never runs smoothly in a Peter Rogers novel, and there's no exception to that rule in The Feud, the tale of two rival families set in a bygone age. When Andrew Drummond is only twelve years old he meets the Ashleys, a family whose members will change his life forever. Andrew learns that long ago his forebear and lookalike, another Andrew Drummond, had married and then strangled his bride, the beautiful Carla Ashley, on their honeymoon. This mysterious act of violence has set in motion the family feud that persists to the young Andrew's day, spawning an obsession on the part of old Lord Ashley that a recurrence of the tragedy must be prevented. But while Andrew is a dead ringer for his ancestral murderous namesake, there is no contemporary equivalent for his beautiful wife, Carla. There is only the enigmatic Ashley heir, Carl, around whom bizarre rumours swirl and whose features are uncannily like those of the woman who died at the hands of her husband...

About the Author :
Peter Rogers is the producer of more than 100 British films. He started work as a journalist and a director's assistant in the theatre in the late 1930s. He worked as a scriptwriter for the BBC and Religious Films Ltd before moving to Gainsborough Films as scenario editor. He produced and wrote children's and suspense films, followed by the 31 Carry On films. He has published three novels with The Book Guild: Two Men, A Family Affair and Forbidden.

Review :
'The Ashleys and the Drummonds had been enemies for at least a hundred years. Before that they had intermarried happily until the tragedy occurred that was to set them at each other's throats. The world was going round happily and brilliantly. A Drummond was marrying an Ashley at Ashley Castle in Sussex. The groom was the handsome young Andrew Drummond and the bride was the beautiful Carla Ashley... On the first night of their married bliss Andrew strangled his wife. The shock and horror of the event divided the two families and began the feud which existed even into the eighteenth century.'
