On a mist shrouded night in 1818 Cornwall England, Meg was hit hard on the head, and left to die.
She awakens with no memory, and finds herself sheltered in the grand Penrose Abbey owned by Lord Cunningham. Almost immediately, Lord Cunningham makes it clear he wants a relationship with her, and Meg feels she owes him that for saving her life.
At the same time, more attacks are made, and Meg realizes the person who left her for dead is determined to finish the job. As she meets people who know her, Meg begs them to give her details about her life. She especially wants Tom to tell her about herself, and the relationship he says the two of them had.
Meg does not know if learning this will lead her to who is trying to kill her, or if she will learn it in time to do any good.
The person behind all this surprised me. I was pulled into this tale from the start, and appreciate that the characters’ faith, or lack of it, was part of this story.
If you love a historical mystery where the stakes are life and death, you will enjoy this clean, five-star book.
Thanks to Barbour Books, for providing Tickmenot with a complimentary copy of, “The Red Cottage,” by Hannah Linder, for the purpose of review. Opinions are my own.
