The Last Letter at St. Aldwyn’s
In 1893, a practical bookseller’s daughter in Oxford agrees to help a widowed architect sort the contents of a decaying country house before it is sold. Among the papers are letters that suggest the house was built around a long-buried love affair, and both of them are drawn into a history that refuses to stay safely in the past.
