    Louisa May Alcott’s Aunt Kipp is a warm and witty tale of family trials, truth-telling children, and the reform of a difficult relative. 
    Polly Snow, her frail mother, and her mischievous younger brother “Toady” struggle to make ends meet while depending on the uncertain goodwill of their wealthy but domineering Aunt Kipp. With her towering black bonnet, sharp tongue, and constant reminders of her fragile health, Aunt Kipp seems to hold her fortune—and their future—over them like a storm cloud. But through humor, honesty, and unexpected affection, this domestic comedy reveals the power of kindness and change of heart. 
    Filled with Alcott’s trademark blend of sentiment, humor, and social observation, Aunt Kipp is both a sharp portrait of Victorian family life and a heartwarming reminder that it’s never too late to love and be loved.

    Lady Kiera Darby and her dashing husband, Sebastian Gage, hope they've finally found peace after a tumultuous summer, but long-buried family secrets soon threaten to unravel their lives . . . 
     
     
     
    October 1832. Kiera is enjoying the slower pace of the English countryside. She, Sebastian, and their infant daughter have accompanied her father-in-law, Lord Gage, home so that he can recuperate from the injuries he sustained in a foiled attempt on his life. But as the chill of autumn sweeps across the land, they receive a summons from an unexpected quarter. Lord Gage's estranged uncle—a member of the notorious Roscarrock family—has been murdered, and his family is desperate for answers. Despite Lord Gage's protests, Kiera and Sebastian press on to Cornwall to assist. 
     
     
     
    It isn't long before they discover that almost nothing is as it seems among the Roscarrocks, and they've been lured to their isolated cove under false pretenses. There are whispers of a lost treasure and frightening allusions to a series of murders stretching back decades that touch the lives of the family personally. Kiera and Sebastian are left with no choice but to uncover the truth before the secrets of the past threaten to destroy them all.
