Lydia Trent

When Lydia Trent's father dies of a mysterious illness, there are more questions than answers. Who is the stranger that has been seen around the village, and what does he want with Lydia's stepsister? Why is the handsome young naval officer, their new neighbour, so reticent about his past? And what is the secret that is literally driving Mrs Trent mad? A loving pastiche of the Victorian 'sensation' novel, Lydia Trent has it all - murder, bigamy, family secrets and long-lost relatives, secret identities and mysterious pasts - and will delight fans of the genre.
