I also had a problem with the age of the little girl (Susan). She seemed a lot older than 9 or 11 to me.Kerriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13581470363339796352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8273911883856580200.post-25955101582376872152012-03-01T15:33:51.699+10:302012-03-01T15:33:51.699+10:30I am glad to see your review as I just bought this...I am glad to see your review as I just bought this book for a friend for her birthday. She is a lover of historical fiction, especially Anne Perry's or the delightful series by Ariana Franklin aka Diana Norman.<br /><br />I am going to try to find some more historical fiction by Norman.<br /><br />Imogen Robertson's series was highly recommended by a U.S. blogger/reviewer.kathy d.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8273911883856580200.post-67811053299308643432012-03-01T15:07:45.319+10:302012-03-01T15:07:45.319+10:30I read this quite recently, though I have yet to d...I read this quite recently, though I have yet to do my review for it. I enjoyed the book very much, though I had the occasional problem with how Harriet Westerman behaves, how much leeway she has to be seen in the company of a man she is not related or married to. Yet, despite that, the book moves along very well, and the characters are well developed also. I will be reading the second one in the series to see how it progresses.Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09095246748581382752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8273911883856580200.post-27855783661485405982012-03-01T13:06:23.644+10:302012-03-01T13:06:23.644+10:30Kerrie - This does sound interesting.
