Summary

** "Dust: A Novel" by Julian Hawthorne is a story set during a period of big social changes at the end of the 1700s; it’s about people dealing with new ideas and ways of life. Mrs. Lockhart and her daughter Marion are having money problems, so they decide to rent out their house, which brings new people into their lives, some from their past. Imagine a world where old social rules are clashing with what's new and important as a family deals with love, losing people, and how society is changing, all starting when they rent out their home and survive a coach crash, which connects them with a mysterious character named Lancaster, and remembering Major Lockhart's death at Waterloo. **
