The Keeper of Secrets
Judith Cutler

Description:
"Spring 1810. Young parson Tobias Campion is settling in at his new parish in Moreton St Jude. Although he loves the quiet village life, Tobias has a troubling sense that all is not quite as it seems.

The suspicious death of a poacher, the untimely demise of a local aristocrat and a mysterious attack on Tobias himself confirms his previous misgivings; malign influence is at work in the supposedly sleepy hamlet. And then someone close to his heart disappears."


Review:
Don't judge a book by its cover! I picked this book up free at my local library bookstore because of its mysterious cover and description.

I found this book slow and boring. The author's writing style seemed archaic and her phrasing choices made little sense to me. The book is set in the early 1800s but not written in the early 1800s - if that makes sense. I put the book down several times, thinking I might have a DNF on my shelf. I'm sorry but I can't recommend this book.
