Reading Rescue --
A Monthly Article of Featured Selections

If you enjoy reading about crime, social intrigue and conditions in 19th century England, then Stephanie Barron's books featuring Jane Austen would be good choices. In Jane and the Man of the Cloth, Jane and her family are looking forward to a peaceful late-summer holiday, but on the way, they have to face a terrible storm and come across an over-turned carriage. As the storm worsens, they are forced to take refuge at High Down Grange. It is a dismal manor house and quite forbidding in appearance, but the master of the house is extremely handsome. Does Mr. Sidmouth, master of the manor, have some deep, dark secrets? Read this month's Reading Rescue article to see our featured selections of historical mysteries.

Each month, the Reading Rescuers bring to your attention books, old and new, that we think you will enjoy. View the archives here.
