Lavinia Spencer Rexford returns in this sequel to Lavinia’s Window.

We four are a patchwork of girls, born of different mothers,made sisters by birthright or chance, if there is such a thing.

It’s 1886. 15 year old Lavinia lives in New York City with her blended family of sisters: 13 year old Annie, 12 year old Mina, and 10 year old Olive. Grandmama decides that Mina’s health will improve in the country, and the family returns to Millstone Manor in Chadds Ford, Pennsylvania. Lavinia and Annie look forward to their long awaited homecoming, but Mina and Olive are city girls who have serious reservations about the move. What they discover is that Millstone Pond will be sold by the government to the Pennsylvania Railroad under a law called Eminent Domain. As Lavinia’s family moves forward to challenge the government’s right to confiscate their land, Lavinia and her sisters forge strong bonds. They find that the distance between city and country is only as far apart as they want it to be. What matters most are the choices made and risks taken in a place where freedom means everything and courage abounds.
