Set in Fairfield Park George Frampton (dad) has died in a mountain climbing accident. His wife Antoinette Frampton (mum), David Frampton (son), Joshua Frampton (son; Josh), Roberta Frampton (wife), Amber Frampton (daughter), Tom Frampton (son), Dowager Lady Margaret Frampton (grandmother; mother-in-law), Julius Beecher (attorney), & many others attend his funeral presided over by Reverend Joseph Morley & the reception/dinner. Low & behold a mysterious beautiful woman Phaedra Chancellor (31; daughter) shows up at the funeral also.The family & friends soon find out who she is. After the funeral the reading of George Frampton will is read by Julius Beecher (attorney) to all those in attendance. If most of this book doesn’t touch your heart nothing will! I have a long lost family I will never know or don’t want to know. A very awesome book cover, great font & writing style. A very well written mysterious long-lost family even romance book. It was very easy to read/follow from start/finish & never a dull moment. No grammar errors, repetitive or out of line sequence sentences. Lots of exciting scenarios, with several twists/turns & a great set of unique characters to keep track of. This could also make great mystery family type movie, or mini TV series. I really did not like the ending but I will still rate it at 5 stars. Thank you for the free Goodreads book Tony Parsons MSW (Washburn) I had hoped for a fluffy good read featuring English countryside and a mystery but this book just got worse and worse. The plot was incredibly predictable but if you didn't pick up on it, it would have been kind of icky. The ending was icky even if you had figured it out and it was so contrived. The characters' relationships were artificial and the prose got worse and worse. I'll be ok not hearing the word "frisson" again or reading about things compared to "diamonds" for awhile. I think I should have read the description more carefully before diving in.
