Jane Peart launches an enthralling fictional series set against the dramatic backdrop of Victorian England. In this suspenseful romance, a young governess' suspicions of a house guest are fueled by strange noises and missing valuables.
A quick read. The plot is predictable and the characters had little depth.
a good start to an excellent series

The vicar's daughter must find her own way in the world after the death of her father. Rachel takes a governess position to two motherless children, only to become very uncomfortable in the house that they share with their unloving aunt and servants, some of whom are sinister. The events as the plot unravels will keep you reading. As with all of Peart's mysteries, the heroine has to learn to rely of the power of the Holy Spirit to get her through the tough times.
This is my favorite book by Jane Peart!

This is one of the best books that I have read recently. It has all the elements that a book should have. When Rachel takes the post as governess and strange things start to happen it becomes impossible to set the book down. It is a good Christian novel for anyone.
