The Red Cottage

 












On the opening pages of The Red Cottage, by Hannah Linder, you see that life, in the year 1818 in England, is full of woe for many.  Meg Foxcroft and Tom McGwen have a sweet friendship that may someday become something much more.  However, one night someone breaks into Meg’s home.  She is wounded, dragged away and wakes up outside a stranger’s home. Remembering little of her former life!


Tom is desperate to track down Meg’s location.  However, when he finally crosses paths with Meg and the lord she is currently staying with, she does not remember him.  Rather, she sees Tom as a stranger!


This is a bit of a dark tale to follow as Meg tries to remember the world she left behind!
