Description
Staplewood Park is a mystery and romance novel set in Victorian England. When Rosalie, Lady Benedict St Maure, inherits Staplewood Park, she teams up with Charles Hargreaves, a solicitor who has unexpectedly inherited the title and estate. Together with Amanda, Rosalie's sister-in-law, they investigate the identity of a young man found injured on Rosalie's drive. As the young man recovers his health but not his memory, Rosalie decides to call him Matthew. Meanwhile, a Bristol solicitor named Steven Pettigrew is searching for a Matthew Stuart who arrived in England from New York. The discovery of a gold watch and a book about English castles leads Pettigrew to believe that the young man may be in danger. An accident involving Lady Julia, Rosalie's niece, reveals an underground chamber at Staplewood Park, which may hold the key to the first Lord Hargreaves' lost fortune. As Rosalie and Charles grow closer, he must navigate his financial difficulties and the challenges of restoring the estate, all while keeping his feelings hidden.
