Teaser Tuesdays & It’s Tuesday, Where Are You? - January 6, 2009
The House at Riverton by Kate Morton
Hannah pressed her lips together and I knew what she was thinking. Despite his professed love of art, Teddy would not approve. And she was right. There was something about the woman, the painting, that was dangerous. Subversive. And yet Hannah wanted it.
If you post your teaser, be sure to leave a link at Should Be Reading.
I’m working as a house maid on an estate in England shortly after World War I, growing up alongside the two young ladies of the house, although our lives couldn’t be more different. I am especially drawn to Hannah, the independent oldest daughter, who is the same age as me. She has dreams and aspirations of adventure and independence, but the chances of her realizing her dreams are very slim, thanks to her traditional-minded father and grandmother.

Nice teaser.
Gail - thanks.
I enjoyed House at Riverton when I read it a while ago. I am looking forward to reading Kate Morton’s next book.
I’ve seen this book around and it sounds interesting. I look forward to reading your review when you finish it.
Ooh, this book is in my TBR pile! Thanks for the teaser, I can’t wait to read this one.
