The Tutor's Daughter
Emma Smallwood accompanies her widowed father to Cornwall when he accepts a position tutoring the younger sons of the Weston family. The cliffside manor reunites her with two older brothers she remembers very differently, while nighttime noises, threatening notes, and hidden rooms make the household increasingly unsettling. Emma's effort to identify whether cruelty or protection lies behind the disturbances becomes entangled with old affection and family shame. Gothic and romantic, this Regency mystery suits readers who enjoy stormy coasts, isolated estates, scholarly heroines, brothers with contrasting reputations, and suspense that makes every corridor and remembered childhood encounter open to reinterpretation.
