The Collectors: Literary Historical Fiction in Victorian England Kindle Edition

2.3 out of 5 stars 5 ratings

Victorian England hangs in the Balance when Amelia Inherits a Secret.


When Amelia turns eighteen, she inherits a secret. In fact, she inherits an entire secret society. Most London high society girls are happy with a new dress or a leather volume of the latest novel, but Amelia’s father has outdone them all. There’s only one caveat: she can’t tell her mother. Secret means secret.

Tea parties and masquerades are part and parcel of the training. But members purposefully excluded, a missing member, and a member who disappeared for decades require more investigation. Not to mention that there is more than one eligible bachelor among the group who catches Amelia’s eye. Philip is dashing and a lawyer. George is a homespun American violinist. Philip makes more sense on paper, but George stirs up Amelia’s passion.

At least one person is definitely lying. And someone is trying to dissolve the group. For centuries, they’ve banded together. Now Amelia must trust the right people and uncover even more secrets, or Amelia, her family, and England itself will be in jeopardy of disastrous ruin.

    1.0 out of 5 stars I Am More Confused After Reading This Book
    Reviewed in the United States on 24 March 2023
    What are the Collectors? I still don't know.

    I continued to read the story hoping for an explanation. I never saw one. Maybe I missed all the secret hints but I don't know why there was a secret society.

    Then the last chapters totally change the story to a different one. Why?

    I am sorry I wasted hours reading this book when I could have enjoyed another. Maybe I needed more hints or just missed the point?

    I will not be reading another book by this author. She is not my cup of tea.
