The Blanchland Secret

Chapter One

Mr Julius Churchward, representative of the famously discreet London lawyers of the same name, had a variety of facial expressions he could draw upon, depending on the nature of the news he was imparting to his aristocratic clients. There was sympathetic but grave, used when breaking the news that an inheritance was substantially smaller than expected; there was sympathetic but rueful, for unsatisfactory offspring and breach of promise; finally, there was an all-purpose dolefulness, for when the precise nature of the problem was in doubt. It was this third alternative that he adopted now, as he stood on the doorstep of Lady Amelia Fenton's trim house in Bath, for if the truth were told, he knew nothing of the contents of the letter he was about to deliver.

Mr Churchward had travelled from London the previous day, stopped overnight at the Star and Garter in Newbury and resumed his journey at first light.

	Dark and mysterious 07/22/2009
Reviewer: A viewer from Sydney, AU
The reputation of Blanchland renders it a entirely unsuitable place for a well-bred lady like Sarah, but she cannot ignore the plea for help which has come to her from the niece she has only just learned exists. With her cousin (Amelia), to whom she usually acts as a chaperone, and two other gentlemen (Guy and Grenville), she heads off to the place that was once her childhood home to find her niece and to offer her assistance. Guy is her childhood friend, whose estate still borders Blanchland. The romance that develops between Guy and Sarah is straightforward, but marred with misunderstanding, arrogance and stubbornness. The mystery surrounding Sarah's niece and Blanchland is intriguing although dark in nature. The book is easy to read and the characters well developed. I found Guy to be quite arrogant and uncommunicative of his thoughts and feelings, but Sarah is strong and courageous. This is a great read and I highly recommend it.
