 I absolutely adore this story. Madeleine Brent has been one of my favorite authors since I was a teenager and Tregaron's Daughter is one of the reasons why.

This is the story of brave Cadi Tregaron, raised by her fisherman father, who saves a wealthy Englishman from dying at sea. When her father dies, the man takes her into his family as an adopted daughter of sorts. There she discovers more about her grandmother than she ever knew.

The story is well-plotted and the characters have depth. I highly recommend this novel!
