The Road To Wealth: 2

In the idyllic village of Myndham life flows gently on, much as it has for generations. But every so often an outside threat intrudes to disrupt this peaceful existence, stirring the villagers to use their countryman's guile and deviousness to defend their rural way of life. Elizabeth, dowager of Myndham Hall, has to pick herself up after the tragic loss of her beloved husband and his brother; she has two young sons who depend on her to manage the estate which is their inheritance. But life goes on. Will a newly-arrived city financier be as supportive and friendly as he seems or is he not to be trusted? Why is a prison inmate writing to him? What has happened to a wife who's disappeared? What secrets lie beneath the ground about to be discovered? CITY AVARICE MEETS THE SIMPLE DECENCY OF THE VILLAGERS AS SECRETS EMERGE IN THE CONTINUING STORY OF RURAL LIFE. Book 2 in the Myndham Chronicles
