About "Bellewether"

"Bellewether is a perfect blend of historical and modern, of romance and intrigue, and just the right touch of magical realism. Susannah Kearsley’s lyrical and elegant writing will pull you into the world of Millbank, Long Island.

The story alternates between the modern-day curator who is working to piece together the history of the Wilde Family and with Lydia Wilde whose family is forced to house two French Officers during the Seven Years’ War.

Overtime Lydia’s hate turns to love but with war waging and wounds that cannot be healed, the future is uncertain."

Reviewed for you here by librarian Jennie R. Publication date is set as August 7, 2018.

Want to Win this Book?

  • Leave a comment below on Wednesday, July 11, and share the name of favorite book in which war and love intertwine.
  • Everyone who leaves a comment here, on Facebook OR Twitter will be entered into a random drawing (Library employees are not eligible). Please only enter in one place.
  • The winner will be contacted by email on Thursday, July 12.
  • The winner can pick up their prize at the Library location of their choice.

Win a Book Wednesdays takes place twice a month. Prize books are Advance Reader Copies (ARCs) of books that will be added to the Library collection within the next month, and can already be found in the Library catalog as "on order."

    Bel canto is one of my all time favorites. It’s love and a hostage situation- not war. But still 🙂
