Published by St Martin's Press in New York and Headline in London in 1990, Hell Hath No Fury attracted the following notices:
* This novel features another of Macdonald's vigorous, sensible, and ambitious heroines of the middle class. ... Beautifully written, this is Macdonald's best effort yet — Cynthia Ogorek, US Booklist
* Macdonald's characters fail to become credible, their actions are inconsistent and often unappealing ... and the prose is perfunctory — Publishers Weekly
* Set in late 19th-century Ireland, this delightful novel is full of the warmth, humour, and passion of the Irish. — TV Guide
* A compelling story ... Daisy, a strong woman, beautiful and clever, unwittingly creates her own particular hell. How exactly this comes about is not revealed until the very last page. — South Hants Gazette
* With generally agreeable, chatty characters, a slow-moving but – like some of Macdonald's others – restfully gossipy novel — Kirkus
And—of Macdonald himself:
*He is every bit as bad as Dickens – Martin Seymour-Smith
