Summary
Abigail Foster is the practical daughter. She fears she will end up a spinster, especially as she has little dowry, and the one man she thought might marry her seems to have fallen for her younger, prettier sister.

Facing financial ruin, Abigail and her father search for more affordable lodgings, until a strange solicitor arrives with an astounding offer: the use of a distant manor house abandoned for eighteen years. The Fosters journey to imposing Pembrooke Park and are startled to find it
entombed as it was abruptly left: teacups encrusted with dry tea, moth-eaten clothes in wardrobes, a doll’s house left mid-play …

The handsome local curate welcomes them, but though he and his family seem acquainted with the manor’s past, the only information they offer is a stern warning: Beware trespassers drawn by rumors that Pembrooke Park contains a secret room filled with treasure.

This catches Abigail’s attention. Hoping to restore her family’s finances—and her dowry—Abigail looks for this supposed treasure. But eerie sounds at night and footprints in the dust reveal she isn’t the only one secretly searching the house.

Then Abigail begins receiving anonymous letters, containing clues about the hidden room and startling discoveries about the past.

As old friends and new foes come calling at Pembrooke Park, secrets come to light. Will Abigail find the treasure and love she seeks … or very real danger?

Fantastic book

Profile Avatar Dena M. May 2022

Sloooooow to start and got a bit too “religion-y” near the end, but a good mystery to solve and a good ending. Narrator was a bit high-brow sounding in the beginning but I got used to it.

Slow but good

Profile Avatar Judi Jeanotte Jan 2023

I loved this listen. I could hardly put it down. often, I dismiss the details surrounding the plot. not this time. the description was so artfully stated I could see the house and all its grandeur the description of the gowns, everything wasn't boring as I usually think. The narration was superb. I had no trouble discerning between the characters, and there was none of that tedious, "he said,"she said. " That plagues a lot of audiobooks.if you like historical novels, with a bit mystery and romance, this listen is for you!

I found the narrator’s voice a bit whiny at first but it improved. Story keeps you interested to the end although it’s a bit far fetched.

Profile Avatar Heike W. Dec 2022

Oh my gosh I loved this book! Couldn’t put it down! It’s totally not my usual genre but it captivated me from the word go. Plenty of twists and turns, some more obvious than others and a gentle love story to pull it all together. A simply delightful read! And kudos to the narrator for managing all those different voices and characters!

I honestly don’t really know what that was.

Profile Avatar Anonymous May 2022

I enjoyed this book very much with it’s twists, secrets, crime, mystery and love story. It was my first read by Julie Klassen and I will be back for more. It kept the reader hanging for answers. The narration took me a moment to get used to, but very well vocalised. Five stars from me.
