Book Description: Bedfordshire, England, 1820: Ruined by the sins of her father, Juliet Finch is cast into a life of self-reliance. Survival is a harsh taskmaster, but she is a quick learner and excels at tracking and snaring wild game to feed herself. Juliet embraces her new identity until the day Henry Russell catches her poaching on his land--a crime punishable by death. Henry, however, has other offenses on his mind: namely, the troublesome stalker who's making a misery of his sister's life. To try to put a stop to her torment, Henry charges Juliet with tracking the elusive villain so he can be brought to justice. Using her skills, Juliet hunts down the rogue. . .but may just become the prey herself.
My Thoughts: Michelle Griep is a master story teller. She writes a detailed version of life that grips the reader's attention from page one.
In The Bird at Bedford Manor we meet Juliet Finch.
It seems that poor Juliet has a tough row to hoe. For her survival is harsh and she must find a way to survive. Being a great survivalist Juliet learns and succeeds at tracking and snaring game. But things become interesting when Juliet is caught poaching on Henry Russel's land. A crime punishable by death.
However, it turns out that Henry isn't interested in turning Juliet in instead he tells Juliet that someone is stalking his sister and comes up with a deal that if Juliet will track this stalker because she's excellent at tracking that all offenses will be gone.
This is where it gets interesting. Did Juliet just sign her death warrant or can she track and outsmart the stalker?
A story not to be missed. A shocking turn of events will have the reader turning those pages.
I do love Michelle Griep's stories. And hope you'll check this great story out too.
