In 1879, Libby Sawyer and her father return from their summer vacation to find strangers living in their house. Widower Michael Dobrescu has come to Colden, MA, from Romania with the intention of taking over the home that was willed to his father. Libby's father, however, has no intention of handing his family homestead over to a stranger. Documents that could determine the outcome of the legal battle between the two families are missing, forcing Libby to play detective. Unconvinced that Michael and his family are the thieves, she soon finds herself unexpectedly drawn to the foreigner.
VERDICT Camden's second evangelical historical romance (after The Lady of Bolton Hill) successfully combines suspenseful intrigue with a lively, unpredictable love story. Recommend this one to readers of M.L. Tyndall or T. Davis Bunn for the same genre blending. [20,000-copy first printing.]
