Part of The Heart of Green Valley Series
John Laslett has just arrived in Green Valley as the new parish minister, employed by the patron, Lady Vera Wallace.
At first it seems the grand lady has seen to his every need. But there is something strange about the housekeeper she has sent.
Kate is efficient in every detail, but John cannot seem to break through her cold exterior.
Something is wrong but he doesn't know what.
The Manse is a delightful quick read set in Victorian (as in the era) Australia. I cared about the characters and wanted to know what else happened in Green Valley. This first book definitely whet my appetite. Overall, this is a heartwarming, light read that left me smiling at the end.
