Penhallow is a very unusual book, written to persuade Heyer's publishers to break off her contract - and it shows just how much talent Heyer had. She sat down and rushed off this book, and it came out as this deeply disquieting, deliberately dissatisfactory - but yet compelling and fascinating novel. Penhallow is a bit of an odd duck in the Georgette Heyer canon—not historical fiction, not a “serious” novel (like the worst of her oeuvre), not really a murder mystery—more of a genre novel with some violence but no detecting. It is set in Cornwall in a vague present day (“present” referring to , when it was published, though there is no mention of World War II, so maybe it should be described as between-the-wars).
