In the Shadow of the Manor: Historical Fiction, An Irish Family Saga: Book 2: Absolution (The Manor

Product Description

Previously titled: The Equal of God.

The clash of Crown and subject continues. The Connors dance closer to the edge of a cliff looking for ways to save their farm to avoid eviction, while in stories and song the villagers recall the rule of England’s Cromwell, whose cruel edicts still overshadow their lives more than a hundred years later.

Far away in Dublin, fate continues to stir Ireland’s pot.

At last the apothecary arrives in Duncreavy, a rural town large enough to justify a visit from a doctor. The villagers line up to have Dr. Nugent and his assistant, the hapless Dunphy, assess the ailments their harsh life has visited upon them, while fresh from gay parties in Georgian Dublin the wealthy Mountjoy brothers drive deeper into the Irish countryside they will one day rule. A surprise encounter with little Agnes’s friend Christie teaches them not to underestimate the Irish, while Connor and the boys scheme for ways to raise the shillings for the cruel Spikes.

Download the next installment of this riveting historical fiction that both entertains and educates.
