Lady Reid's Legacy: The Dunmara Series - Book 3
In 1846, a young bride arrives at Dunmara as the Great Famine tightens its grip on Ireland. Evelyne Reid quickly learns that her marriage is nothing more than a debt repaid, and that her husband, Lord Reid, is as cold and merciless as the hunger stalking his tenants. Powerless by law, Evelyne must choose between obedience and her conscience.
But Evelyne makes a decision in 1846 that will echo across two centuries.
Over 150 years later Dunmara Estate is in grave peril.
On Ireland's wild West Coast, a ruthless developer has this ancient place in his sights, and those fighting to save it are losing ground with every passing day. The answer to Dunmara's survival is hiding in plain sight. But first, someone has to see it.
Evelyne’s legacy is all but forgotten, reduced to a whisper as the years roll on.
The question is whether anyone will hear it — before it's too late.

About the author
Jean Grainger
110 books1,735 followersJean Grainger was born in Cork, Ireland. She has been a tour guide of her beloved home country, a teacher, a university lecturer and a playwright. She began writing fiction at the suggestion of her clients on tours, many of whom were sure all the stories she told them would make for a great book. Her first book, The Tour, has become a Number 1 bestseller on Amazon. It tells the story of a disparate group of American visitors to Ireland, who, along with their Irish tour guide have a life changing experience in the magical Emerald Isle.
Her second book, So Much Owed, is a family saga set during the Second World War. The story centres on the Buckley family of West Cork and how their lives are pulled in different directions as they become embroiled in the war. It is a sweeping family saga of intrigue and romance against the background of occupied Europe.
In her third novel, Shadow of a Century, she tells a tale of a battered old flag found in New York in 2016, a century after it was used during the Easter Rising, when Ireland made her final bid for freedom from Great Britain. This tells the story of a journalist who uncovers a story, one with much more to it than a flag.
Her fourth novel, due out in Spring 2016, Under Heaven’s Shining Stars, is set in the 1970s in Cork, Ireland and is a novel about friendship. Three boys, Liam, Patrick and Hugo, though from very different backgrounds are united in a deep but often times challenging friendship. As their lives progress, only by staying strong, can they prevail. Or fail.
Her novella, Letters of Freedom, tells the story of Carmel, stuck in a pointless marriage, when a figure from her past emerges and changes everything with a ‘like’ on Facebook. This quick read will touch your heart.
She lives in Cork with her husband and her two youngest children. The older two come home occasionally with laundry and to raid the fridge.

No spoiler warnings here
I loved Lady Reid’s Legacy. The storyline was excellent, and the back-and-forth between the two time periods was especially well done. I was completely invested in the story.
That said, I am increasingly frustrated by the woke language and modern viewpoints being inserted into the story. Historical characters should speak in a way that is believable for their time. Referring to God as “Providence” was perfectly fitting, but then referring to God as “it” sounded jarringly modern and completely out of place for the 1800s. Likewise, having the housekeeper refer to an unborn baby as “they” felt conspicuously modern rather than authentic to an 1800s character. Historical fiction needs to remain historically convincing.
I was also disappointed by the modern-day commentary surrounding living together before marriage. Please remember that there are still many readers who sincerely believe living together before marriage is wrong. That belief should not be treated as though it has simply become obsolete.
Similarly, Jeannie’s comment about Eastern religions influencing her thinking struck me as culturally and generationally unconvincing for the character as she had been presented - an upper-class Irish-American white woman of her generation. It felt less like Jeannie speaking naturally and more like a contemporary viewpoint being inserted into the character.
Please trust the history and the characters instead of inserting present-day woke language and attitudes where they feel forced. It is distracting, breaks the authenticity of an otherwise beautifully told story, and for readers like me it is a real turnoff. That is particularly frustrating because, aside from those issues, I genuinely loved this book.

Read my full review on Rosepoint Publishing.
Ah, the third in the series, and my favorite so far, gets ever deeper into Orla’s fight to save her historic Dunmara House, ring fort, and tower. This installment, however, also introduces us to Becca who becomes a co-main character with split timeline Evelyne Reid.
Follow the author’s expert storytelling as she weaves in the background of Becca and her quest to find her (Irish) roots and that of Evelyne Reid.
Evelyne of the nineteenth century is unfortunate enough to have been married off to Lord Reid as her poverty-stricken parents face losing their home and their lives.
As the Great Famine wields a shocking axe to the population, it changes forever the path of their lives of the survivors. There is usually an eye-opening history of a current tradition borne by folk or Celic lore. Also, love the colorful turn of phrase, humor, euphemisms, and accents and these are also included in abundance.
Does Orla find proof in her fight to save Dunmara House? Does Becca find the missing link that may lead to surprising roots? You and I will both have to wait to find out but I can tell you this saga is heating up beautifully. Is there a possible budding romance or two coming at us in Book 4?
This time, even I hope so. 4.5 stars
Many thanks to the author for providing me with the ARC and the opportunity to read and review this book. The thoughts expressed here are my own.

Jean Grainger always captures my interest with her inventive plots and well-drawn characters, and this book was no exception. I was often hankering to move onto the next chapter to see what happened next. In addition to characters we’d been introduced to in previous books in the series, such as Orla, Audrey, Orla’s son Ferdia, Donnacha, Safira and Christopher, we meet an American, Becca, who has Irish ancestors and takes a genealogy class at Dunmara. She plays an integral part in the plot and has had a heartbreaking background.
Also introduced is Lady Evelyne Reid, given by her financially distressed parents in marriage to the evil Second Baron of Dunmara, Horatio Reid, in 1846. She has no means of escape from the man, who is a cruel landlord to his starving tenants during the potato famines of those years. She attempts to help local people without his knowledge
The unscrupulous developer Larry Kennedy makes periodic appearances, placing unsightly hoardings around the Dunmara property and possibly breaching the current lease held by Safira and Christopher in various ways.
While there are multiple timelines in the book, Ms. Grainger manages to produce a cohesive story illuminating the terrible Irish famine of the 1840’s, the storied lives of the Irish “haves”/upper classes versus those of the common people such as tenant farmers, and the current characters exploring their Irish heritage.
I highly recommend this book, and look forward to the next in the series.

Review of advance copy received from Author
As usual, this was an intriguing and interesting story as told from the view of the house on Dunmara estate, and as we know, walls have ears. I received this ARC copy from the author, Jean Grainger, and I am always delighted to read her stories which are full of imagination, but also filled throughout with history and facts of life in the era and place when and where her many diverse charactwers appear.
As I read this story, it saddened my heart to see how terrible life was for the people in Ireland during the British occupation in the 1800's and how women were often treated with such disdain, whether they were in the well-to-do class or in poverty, and how that was carried forward, sometimes even to this day by men.
This portion of the story reminded me of other groups of people, like the indigenous people around the world who lost their voice due to occupation of other groups of people. "We also lost ourselves. We lost our language, and for a culture to lose their words, their way of expressing themselves, in the wake of such a devastating event, it’s retraumatising, I think.’"
Well-done, Jean Grainger! Thank you for entrusting me with an ARC copy.

Jean Grainger writes so well and so beautifully and I am totally invested in this story as I have been for all of her series. When she writes the dialogue of the very nasty Horatio Reid, I can HEAR him in my head and the vocabulary and syntax is exactly what it would have been in 1848. The one thing about that time that we probably don't admire enough is their ability to use a lot more vocabulary than we do currently. I find that I speak better English when I read more books as we have become lazy in the 20th and 21st centuries and it's only going to get worse using nothing but letters to communicate with each other on social media. Dunmara house has a voice of it's own and each book explores the story of another person with a deep connection to the estate. Jean also teaches history inadvertently (or possibly on purpose) in her books so you will learn about aspects of Irish history of which you may not have been entirely cognizant. Three million Irish died during the potato famine and many more left for the US, Australia and other places in the world. It's probably why we have Southie, the St. Patrick's Day parade in NYC and so many Boston Irish cops!
Review of advance copy received from Author
This entire series has held me in its clutches since book one. In Lady Reid's Legacy, the reader gets a peek at what might save the Dunmara Estate if Orla can only follow the clues in time. Kennedy is getting progressively more aggressive in his destruction and must be stopped. It is fascinating to me to hear the house's thoughts and read about its past, then flash to the desperate attempts to save this piece of history. As always, Ms. Grainger weaves her magic in this well written book. This installment focus' on Lady Reid's horrifying marriage and the way she manages to help the poor during the Potato Famine and how it affects present day Dunmara. A bit of levity is needed and provided by Orla's vain, soon to be ex, husband. I have not yet figured out why she keeps backing off from a more meaningful relationship with the delightful, gentlemanly Donnacha O'Reilly but I am always hopeful that will resolve in the next book. I am so fascinated that I read straight through each new book and wait impatiently for the next one.

A Historical Time Hop Book
I enjoyed going back and forth between the different generations of habitants of Dunmara House. It seems taxation history often repeats itself for better or worse. In the case of Lord Dunmara in the mid 1800’s evil permeated this man. And in the current timeline o this plot, Becca’s husband played a very similar evil character. Both Lady Evelyne and Becca were unjustly confined due to their husbands’ cruelties. This is a book about domestic violence and the toll it takes on its victim. The quote at the end of the book is awesome. Basically it says that while there is darkness in this world, it will never overcome the light. As long as there is light there is hope and in my opinion, the reverse can also be said. I have really enjoyed this series and am looking forward to the next installment.

I received an advance reader copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. In this third installment of The Dunmara Series you will meet some rather vile individuals as your heart goes out to the women who have to put up with them. Grainger has such an easy way of writing that you can't help but become fully invested in the comings and goings of Dunmara and its full cast of interesting characters. I have read every book she has written and am amazed at how she is able to maintain the high quality level of all her stories. I've said it before and will say it again here, this is another series that I sincerely hope someone will notice and make into a multi-episode television series.

Another great story about Dunmara.
This is Evelyne, Lady Reid's story. Heartbreaking at times.
She is locked in a cold, heartless, arranged marriage to Lord Reid who owns Dunmara and all the tenant farms surrounding.
She has not much chance of escape but still her conscience tells her what's right and she cannot just ignore the appalling conditions that the people are living under.
I was on tenter hooks as her activities were revealed and the gross cruelty that followed.
The research that goes into all these books amazes me. Jean is an amazing writer and I cannot wait for the next Dunmara episode. Who will turn up next?
Thankyou.

This was book 3 in this latest series by Grainger. The saga continues as told both back in the 1840s and in present day. The Great Potato Famine had its grip on the poor Irish, and the owner of Dunmara, Horatio Reid has an ugly grip on his starving tenants. His lovely young bride, Evelyne can’t stand the misfortune he causes and tries her best to secretly feed the tenants. Present day, the crew at Dunmara continue to fight to ugly land developer, Kennedy, while making lasting decisions on their own lives and relationships. Enjoying this series and sad to see I will have to wait a few months for the next installment!

What an amazing story! I'm really loving this riveting series.
It's amazing to see how all the pieces come together, like the best of mystery books. I'm sure that everything is going to fall into place and then another huge bit to solve comes along.
The characters are so endearing and come alive in the author's beautiful words and descriptions.
The storyline is powerful, bringing home the horrors of the famine in Ireland and the complete lack of women's rights at that time.
Can't wait for the next installment!

Absolutely brilliant addition to the series
Jan not Rick (shared account). I am in awe of Jean Grainger’s absolutely brilliant writing, seamlessly weaving together three stories - Evelyne’s, Orla’s and Becca’s. Her impeccable research into Irish history and genealogy brings alive the horror of the Famine, the suffering of the Irish people, the compassion of those who tried to assist them, juxtaposed against some of the present day’s cruelty and greed. With several cliffhangers dangling, the next book in the series is eagerly awaited!

Exquisite Story-Telling!
I enjoyed the first two books in the Dunmara series but this one held me spell-bound! The author deftly switches between time periods and paints fascinating description of characters and locations, utilizing vivid language and authentic historical details. I especially appreciated her thorough descriptions of the process of genealogical research. I enjoyed the interesting plot, but even more, I learned so much detail about the peoples' experience during the Irish Famine and the underlying causes of the War for Independence.

Safira is experiencing success with her retreat center at Dunmara House. She has hired a laundry service for the bedding, and although she still does the cooking, teenagers help with the preparation.
However, the lease would end in three years, so she and Christopher were looking for an alternative venue when Larry Kennedy evicted them.
Orla has been researching the Dunmara owners and teaching a genealogy course for the retreat. She and Professor Donnacha O'REILLY attracted to each other. Bernard, her ex-husband, is hanging around with Kennedy, which is suspicious.

Ahhh my! Jean Grainger, another winner! Another I could hardly lay aside!
Thank you, thank you Jean! Loved your beautiful and timing of this lovely book, I felt like I was in this dramatic place in Ireland and living close to each of the characters. I am anxious for your next book and will be looking forward to visit again with this amazing family and their friendships.
May God bless all of us! AMEN

Wonderful as ever!
Another beautiful piece of the Dunmara puzzle, exquisitely written. It’s easy to fall in love with Grainger’s characters, they are so real-imperfectly human and relatable. The rich history of the area is fascinating and with the genealogy search a key element, the reader is pulled into a mystery spanning generations. This reader is anxious for the next (and maybe final?) piece of the puzzle.

An absolute masterpiece of dual-timeline storytelling! I am thoroughly enjoying the Dunmara series, and this third installment is exceptionally gripping. The author weaves the alternating timelines together so expertly that the connections steal up on you, delivering a fantastic "aha!" moment later in the book. It kept me completely hooked from start to finish. I am anxiously awaiting book four!

SOOOOO GOOD!!!
Read the first two books in the series first - all are excellent and I’m waiting with bated bread for the fourth.
I could not out this down. Just so good to catch up with the main character but talk about a cliffhanger ending! Can’t wait until December release of book four!!!!!

While I'm enjoying this series, it seems like Grainger is really stretching out the story to sell more books. Most of these vignettes about who owned Dunmara House could be chapters or book sections. I am also ready for it to be over; way too much repetition (I.e. Orla agonizing over whether to kiss Donnacha) and I feel like the Becca story-line just got dropped.
October 19, 2026
ready for the next one!
It’s like watching a mini series unfold and have to wait for the next season to see what happens. The author is so good at creating her characters that you hope something terrible will happen to the evil ones and get them out of the story for good! Well she took care of one in this book! Read it and see which one.

A great fast paced book, 3rd in the series, Jean has become a master of writing stories within stories and a duel time line, which I love. Great strong characters good and bad! Well researched as always, I always learn something new. Can hardly wait for book 4

A Must Read
Every one of Jean Grainger’s books have captivated me and once I start reading one I cannot put it down until I’ve read the last page. But this book outdid them all, in my opinion. It was so delicious!

This book kept me on pins and needles the whole way through. I can't wait for the next edition. Every book that I have read by Jean Grainger is so enjoyable. She has such a way of drawing one into the story. No read this in one day.

Another excellent book in the Dunmara series. The only thing wrong is having to wait for her next installment to come out. Jean Grainger takes historical fictions to a whole new level.

once again
Jean Grainger does not disappoint! My roots on both my mother (cork) and father (Derry)begin in Ireland. Reading her books gives me a glimpse of my people. Although 2 generations on my mother’s side are between me and my descendants. I have read almost lot of her books. She brings her characters to life quickly and you feel you know them..

Different, but in a good way
Another success in the writing. The characters intertwined with history and future, it can get a little confusing, however they keep you stuck in the movement between the times.
