This is a novel of marriage and manners, in the style of Jane
Austin, set in an intricate and fascinating social background
where, after almost two hundred years, the HBC monopoly is yielding
to the English-led settlement of Victoria. Highly
recommended.--Story Circle Book Review-- (09/01/2009)
Winn's first novel is a well-researched story based on factual
accounts.--Quill & Quire-- (09/01/2009)
