There is no Frigate like a Book To take us Lands away, Nor any Coursers like a Page Of prancing Poetry – This Traverse may the poorest take Without oppress of Toll – How frugal is the Chariot That bears a Human soul.

50. Secrets in the Heather
By Gwen Kirkwood
Rated:★★★
A new family saga from the well-loved Scottish author. When the woman orphaned Victoria Pringle believes to be her great-grandmother dies, Victoria is offered a job in the kitchens of the Pringle family, tenants of the Laird of Darlonachie. But times are changing, both above and below stairs, and Victoria must face up to new choices, and come to terms with a long-buried secret in her past.
I love family sagas. The problem that I had with this one is that it's about the fifth book in a series and this is the obnly one that my library system has. It's a pretty good story but I was too far behind to really enjoy it.
