The Fledgling

I have just discovered Elizabeth Cadell and have been snapping up her books, what of them I can anyway! This book concerns a girl going off to boarding school leaving her old Aunts in Portugal. Her father has an aquaintance take her on the train to England, but on the voyage the girl, who is wise beyond her years due to living with her older relatives, spots a fiend!! The adventure begins and endures with a livlihood and grace only found in Cadell novels. Old fans and new will enjoy this book. It's a light easy escape route.
