Who will inherit the beautiful Millbank estate and its wealth? That is the question on everyone’s mind when Squire Irving dies, leaving behind the greedy widow of his spendthrift elder son and her son Frank as well as his younger son, who was born under a cloud of suspicion. At the outset of the book, it seems that he has loved his younger son enough to look past his uncertain birth and bestow upon him the bounty that he is leaving behind. It is clear from the beginning of the novel that Roger, the younger son, is well-deserving of this love. Generous to a fault, his character is an upright and honest one that the reader comes to admire. The plot quickly grows complex with the addition of a baby girl, Magdalen, that Roger unwittingly takes into custody when her mother abandons her. As the children grow, Roger and Frank find themselves vying for Magdalen’s heart as well as for the Millbank estate. The love triangle is complicated by the machinations of Frank’s mother which end in tragedy when a newer will is discovered, disinheriting Roger and leaving everything to Frank. This shattering discovery, though tragic when it occurs, leads to the discovery of several unsuspected ties and an ultimately happy resolution. The plot moves swiftly, propelled by full-bodied characters that elicit a strong response in the reader. In the end, good triumphs over evil and we are reminded that, come what may, if we live upright and faithful lives, we’ll find contentment and joy in anything, even poverty and loss. I was intrigued by this book when I read that it was the only book of fiction that Laura Ingalls Wilder’s mother had in their house. Having read it, I can see why. It was a wonderfully satisfying read and, if you can find it in the library, I’d certainly recommend it!
