When carpenter, Fred Carter, finds a young woman in dire straits by the roadside, he takes her to the local inn where she gives birth to a daughter. Charlotte Mackie is an unmarried mother and has run away from home where she would have no sympathy from her strict parents. A few days later, Fred takes Charlotte to her aunt’s house and does not expect to see her again.

When their paths unexpectedly cross, Fred finds Charlotte is distraught as her aunt has arranged an adoption behind her back. Charlotte is desperate to find her baby, and Fred promises to help. However, they are unprepared for the sinister discoveries that lay before them. Set alongside the absorbing detail of country life and budding village romances, dark forces are at work, which ultimately test the bravery and resourcefulness of the whole community.

The Angel Maker is the sequel to The Mazzard Tree and the second novel in a compelling series that follows the lives and loves of the villagers of Hartford. A rare treat for lovers of historical fiction. 

Praise for The Angel Maker:

"Intriguing and well written. Full of drama and family bonds. A delightful historical story set in North Devon, England, in the 1800’s.
Recommended."
~ JH, Amazon Reviewer

"There’s so much going on in this story it really does keep you on the edge. New relationships, deaths, and a strange tall woman with a dark side to investigate. Plus, a secret that will definitely throw the Lord and Lady into a tailspin.

I thoroughly enjoyed The Angel Maker and, I am looking forward to how the secret, which has just come to light, will impact on the lives of the Manor House.

If you love a good Victorian Saga, then this series is a must!"
