The Husband Hunt
Twenty-five-year-old Elena is reeling. First, the sudden death of her father. Next, the discovery that her father had lost all their wealth, and put them deeply into debt. Now, her mother has announced she has scraped together the money they had left to finance a trip for her sister, her mother, and Elena to go to Graham Springs, a playground for the wealthy.
Her mother’s plan is that Elena will catch a rich husband at the Springs. That way, their debts would all be paid, and the rest of the family could live in comfort, instead of as paupers. Elena always knew she was the plain one, who was already considered a spinster, how can her mother think she can catch a husband?
To Elena’s surprise, there are three men at the Springs that seem to be interested in her.
But mystery also surrounds Elena there when she befriends a beautiful young woman, who dies under strange circumstances.
This is an exciting book which takes place in an amazing location that existed at the time of this story, in 1842. Former fiancés, danger, and faith all make appearances in this tale. The descriptions are so vivid you will feel you are there. I highly recommend this five-star book, fans of mystery, historic tales, and well-written stories will enjoy this.
Thanks to the author for providing Tickmenot with a book to review. Opinions are my own.
