THE THIEF OF LANWYN MANOR by Sarah E. Ladd

Cornwall, England, 1818
 
This Regency tale embraces an ancient estate with a troubling reputation. Being a companion for her cousin Jane, will not be the needed escape that Julia Twethewey anticipated. Chapter one sets the dangers and mystery afoot as tall, blond Isaac Blake interrupts a crime. Sarah Ladd skillfully lures her readers through mystery, mayhem, and danger that is quite captivating. The characters dispersed throughout the story are rich and varied. The mystery kept this reader glued to the pages ever wishing to find out—yet equally wishing the tale would never end! Dangers within and without kept the tension taut.

I really liked both the heroine and hero, and their struggles to grow through their challenges were well laid. Sarah Ladd certainly knows how to widen the tension beyond the manor and into the neighborhood, which has a partnership with the concerns and troubles pushing the characters onward.

Yes, yes, indeed, I loved this story.  Every time Sarah Ladd releases a new novel—I’m running to purchase it! As is my sister, Pat. Sarah always provides excellent depth in her characters and adventures for them to frolic within. This is an excellent read that I’m happy to point your attention toward, for it is worth every bit of time it takes to read this novel.
