The Weaver's Daughter








The Weaver's Daughter is the third book in Sarah E. Ladd's latest series.  The year is 1812, in Yorkshire, England, and the weavers are in an uproar with the changes coming to their way of life, with the entrance of textile mills.  Kate Dearborne is caught up in the middle of the battle with her father, tried and true to the old ways, and her brother moving on to embrace the new technology, that has entered the land!

Soon Henry Stockton enters the scene, as he is returning from his years away at war.  Henry has a lot to catch up on, with the wool business his grandfather has been working hard to maintain.  There are things with which Henry disagrees, like children working long hours in the depths of the mill.  Before Henry can help make any changes, his grandfather is suddenly murdered!

As Henry attempts to solve his grandfather's murder, he seems to keep crossing paths with Kate Dearborne.  Even though Kate and Henry are on opposite sides of this battle, you will soon get the sense that God has something else in store for these young lives.  This tale will take on a much faster pace, as this battle begins to take on a much more serious and dangerous tone!

When the dust settles, hang on to see where Kate and Henry's relationship takes them!


I received this book from Thomas Nelson in exchange for my honest review.
