But I admit I didn't look into it! It was originally published in the late 18th century, so the language probably wouldn't have been the same as what appeared in the lengthy Tey quotes.
I found a pdf at Internet Archive.

P.S. Wikipedia's article on Cecily Neville includes this line:

Quote:
An imaginary novel about Cecily entitled The Rose of Raby is discussed in Josephine Tey's 1951 novel The Daughter of Time.
So it seems that there's no actual connection to the one at Goodreads and IA.
