The mill house mystery

"The Mill House Mystery" by Florence Warden, is a story set in the charming town of Dourville, where the life of Sir Robert Hadlow, a respected baronet, changes forever when he saves a young woman, Rhoda Pembury, from a dangerous accident. As Rhoda recovers in the peaceful Mill House, she finds herself drawn to Sir Robert, but her admiration grows complicated by his approaching marriage to Lady Sarah, a woman known for her beauty but also her somewhat shallow nature. The story begins on a calm summer afternoon, and the details of Rhoda's rescue show Sir Robert's kind heart and suggest challenging times ahead. The early parts of the book carefully put together ideas about dedication, growing love, and hints at the struggles that come from what people expect and what people truly want.
