"Highly recommended--well-rounded, believable characters, a multi-layered plot solidly based on human nature, all authentically set in the England of 1917...an outstanding and riveting read."
--New York Times bestselling author Stephanie Laurens

"Bess Crawford is a strong and likable character."
--Washington Times

Already deservedly lauded for the superb historical crime novels featuring shell-shocked Scotland Yard inspector Ian Rutledge (A Lonely Death, A Pale Horse et al), acclaimed author Charles Todd upped the ante by introducing readers to a wonderful new series protagonist, World War One battlefield nurse Bess Crawford. Featured for a third time in A Bitter Truth, Bess reaches out to help an abused and frightened young woman, only to discover that no good deed ever goes unpunished when the good Samaritan nurse finds herself falsely accused of murder. A terrific follow up to Todd's A Duty to the Dead and An Impartial Witness, A Bitter Truth is another thrilling and evocative mystery from "one of the most respected writers in the genre" (Denver Post) and a treat for fans of Elizabeth George, Anne Perry, Martha Grimes, and Jacqueline Winspear.

Gentle Retinoid Cream – Lightweight, Smoothing, Good for Sensitive Skin & Beginners
This is one of those products that feels like a very approachable way to incorporate a retinoid into your routine without immediately dealing with the harsher side effects people often expect. I’ve been using it consistently at night, and what stood out to me first is how lightweight and comfortable the texture is. It leans more toward a thin cream-serum than a heavy treatment, so it spreads easily and doesn’t feel overwhelming on the skin. My skin is normal but leans dehydrated with some sensitivity, especially around the eye area, so I’m always cautious with anything in this category. This layers in very smoothly and absorbs quickly without leaving behind any greasy or sticky feel. It sits well under moisturizer and doesn’t pill, which makes it easy to slot into an existing nighttime routine. What I noticed early on is that this formula feels more balanced than intense. It gives that gradual smoothing effect over time rather than trying to deliver an immediate, dramatic change. With consistent use, my skin started to feel a bit more refined and even, with a softer overall texture. It’s the kind of improvement that builds steadily rather than something that shows up all at once. One thing I do appreciate is how comfortable it feels in use. I didn’t experience the kind of strong tingling or irritation that sometimes comes with products in this category, and it didn’t leave my skin feeling overly dry when I used it in moderation. That said, I still like to follow with a moisturizer to keep everything balanced, especially since my skin leans dehydrated. The formula also includes soothing and barrier-supporting ingredients, which helps explain why it feels more wearable on a regular basis. My skin tends to respond well to that kind of combination, where you’re getting a treatment step but it’s cushioned by more supportive ingredients. There is a bit of confusion in how it’s positioned, since it’s labeled as an eye-focused product but also described in a way that suggests broader use. In practice, I’ve found it easy to apply carefully around targeted areas, but it’s something you’ll want to approach thoughtfully depending on how you typically use products like this. Packaging is simple and functional. The tube makes it easy to control how much you use, and since you only need a small amount each time, it feels like it will last a while. Overall, this works well as a gentle, steady introduction to a retinoid-style product or as a more low-key option for maintaining smoother-looking skin over time. It’s not about fast, dramatic changes, but rather consistent, comfortable use that supports a more refined, balanced look with regular use.

lightweight, effective, and easy to try
I started using this on under eye dark spots after a friend recommended it. The texture is lightweight, non sticky, and absorbs smoothly. The price is very reasonable, making it great for trying out. After about four days, my dark spots looked slightly lighter, and I plan to continue using it for more noticeable results.

Satisfied…..
I never thought I’d be interested in products like this, but as I’ve gotten older, I realized I need something with stronger effects than what I used before. I happened to come across this product while searching, and after trying it, I feel it’s quite good for the price. Of course, skin that has been damaged over many years can’t be fully restored by just one product, but I’m satisfied with even the slight improvements I’ve noticed. I think I will prefer again for sure.

So lightweight, so smooth
I was looking for a retinol eye cream and decided to try this since I liked this brand before. The texture is super lightweight and absorbs well, and my makeup doesn’t pill at all after using it. Not sure yet about long-term wrinkle results, but it keeps my under-eye really hydrated and smooth. I’ve also been using it on my smile lines. lowkey excited to see more results!
