"...the reader will be looking forward to the next episode with the same eagerness as addicts of Downton Abbey."
In this first book of a trilogy, William Durant and his sister Ella have spent most of their youth living abroad while their father invests in land and builds a railroad empire in the wake of the Civil War. They are provided every opportunity their father's amassed wealth can buy: travel, private tutors, and entrance into the inner social circles of Victorian era England. Their world is shaken however when their father summons them back to America after the financial panic of 1873 to help rebuild the family fortune in the Adirondack wilderness.
