The House at Riverton

It's a Winter Wonderland here...12 inches of snow plus freezing rain and now cold rain to make everything slushy.  Makes for wonderful reading.  On loan from LT is this debut novel from Kate Morton, The House at Riverton.  It's a 1920s mystery set in England, narrated by one from "downstairs" about certain events that take place "upstairs".  Very much like Downton Abbey, which is one of my personal favorite television series of all time.  So far, I know the main character, Grace, is a new servant at Riverton.  She's no stranger to the house, as her mother worked there previously and there is some question as to why she no longer works there.  It's slow reading, but interesting.  I highly recommend it if you like period films or novels.  

Now back to my book!
