Through a Gold Eagle

This is an absolutely excellent book, and this is a truly wonderful series! The action around this page-turner is all around the secret plans that John Brown has been working on, to attack Harper's Ferry in order to free the Negroes there. History has shown that John Brown was a fanatic, but his plot it was that actually moved the country into the great war between the States. Glynis is involved peripherally with the plot when lots of counterfeit money starts appearing in Seneca Falls. And with the arrival of the money, murder follows. Glynis is drawn in and has to find the answers with the help of her Constable Stuart. These books are tremendously exciting, and real historical figures are sprinkled generously throughout. But the show more fictional characters are the real triumph. They are so utterly real! This book introduces us to Glynis's young neice Emma, as well as another suitor for Glynis. She does lead a pretty exciting life for a small town librarian. I absolutely love this character and these books.! show less
