Book Review…..The Walled Garden by Robin Farrar Maass Lucy Silver arrives is in England hoping to solve a longstanding literary mystery, write her dissertation, and finish her graduate studies. But as Lucy starts to piece together the correspondence between her late grandmother and Elizabeth Blackspear, the famous poet and garden writer who’s the subject of Lucy’s dissertation, she discovers puzzling coded references in the letters and when an elderly English aristocrat with a secret connection to Elizabeth offers Lucy access to a neglected walled garden on his estate, the mystery deepens. As spring turns to summer in Bolton Lacey, Lucy finds herself fighting the Blackspear Gardens’ director’s attempt to deny her access to vital documents in the archives and trying not to fall in love with an attractive Scottish contractor. In the midst of this turmoil, she stumbles upon an illicit plot to turn the historic gardens into a park. As she races against time to save the gardens, Lucy’s search for the truth about Elizabeth’s life leads her to a French convent where she uncovers explosive evidence that will change her life and the lives of everyone around her The Walled Garden was a compelling and entertaining story about Lucy trying to solve the mystery of her grandmother and Elizabeth but also for her to learn about herself. The story alternates between the past giving the reader a complete picture as the story comes together. The descriptions of the garden were fadinating and absolutely amazing! It was easy to transport myself there and smell the flowers! I really enjoyed the characters! They really kept me turning the pages. I was able to figure out the mystery but I still enjoyed following along as everything came together! Thank you Book Sparks and Robin Farrar Maass for sharing this lovely story with me! #BookSparks #RobinFMaass #books #read #bookreview #bookstagram #TheWalledGarden https://www.instagram.com/p/CdqNUYWLZgL/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

SYNOPSIS: American grad student Lucy Silver arrives in England hoping to solve a longstanding literary mystery, write her dissertation, and finish her graduate studies in a blaze of academic glory. But as Lucy starts to piece together the correspondence between her late grandmother and Elizabeth Blackspear, the famous poet and garden writer who’s the subject of Lucy’s dissertation, she discovers puzzling coded references in the letters—and when an elderly English aristocrat with a secret connection to Elizabeth offers Lucy access to a neglected walled garden on his estate, the mystery deepens. As spring turns to summer in Bolton Lacey, Lucy finds herself fighting the Blackspear Gardens’ director’s attempt to deny her access to vital documents in the archives . . . and trying not to fall in love with an attractive Scottish contractor.
