Set in early 1800s England, during a period of unrest among the nation's wool mill workers, The Letter From Briarton Park tells the story of Miss Cassandra Hale, a young teacher who taught in the same boarding school as she had grown up in never knowing her own family. After the passing of her mentor and surrogate mother, Cassandra sets out to learn about her roots following some surprising deathbed confessions. Ladd has crafted an interesting story filled with deception, suspicion, and intrigue while including a healthy portion of compassion, forgiveness, and love which made for several hours of reading pleasure.
