Marvelous stories with an eerie feeling and suspenceful :)

[Lisa M. · Rating 4 out of 5]

Another easy and predictable suspense from Jane Peart—but still a decent read! 🙂

[Cris · Rating 3 out of 5]

Again Jane Peart shows how in 1890's love can overcome social statics.

This series consists of simple mysteries,
and a little romance against a background of a rough definition of a historical backdrop. I don't think they stay true to the time period.

my ratings:

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐: Loved it. Couldn't put it down. I will probably read it again and it has a place in my library.

⭐⭐⭐⭐: Enjoyed it. Good characters, great story. if nonfiction, great information, interesting topic.

⭐⭐⭐: Liked it. Glad I read it, but probably won't read again.

⭐⭐: okay, I won't read it again, it will not be kept for my library.

⭐: I didn't like it, don't recommend it.

This suspense series had the atmosphere of Jane Eyre and the suspense of a Dee Henderson novel. It is very good and the author constantly brings all the character's feelings back to rest and trust in God. These are a very good read!
