Emma Disposes (Ulverscroft Romance)

Rating:
Summary: A Traditional Regency
Review: I particularly liked the way Mira Stables managed to use the traditional wicked uncle, the dashing military hero, the tales of Sussex smuggling, and the search for a French spy, together in this romance. A number of social issues are brought into the plot but in a natural way and the action of story is actually dependant on them. She manages to tie the ends together in a convincing way that makes you think it all really happened or perhaps the book was well thought out.

From the dust cover of the Ulverscroft edition...

Charles Trevannion is annoyed by his recall from active service in the Peninsula on what he considers a wild goose chase. The chase leads him to a quiet Sussex inn and to a meeting with Nell Easton, who is apparently alone in the world save for a sinister-sounding uncle. Nell is able to help Charles in his task - until she herself falls into danger and stands in need of rescue.
