Cradle to Grave

fullDescription

Will Rees is adjusting to life on his Maine farm in 1797, but he's already hungering for the freedom of the road, and his chance to travel comes sooner than he expects. Lydia has just received a letter from her old friend Mouse, who now lives in the Shaker community in Mount Unity, New York. To Lydia and Rees's astonishment, she's in trouble with the law. She's kidnapped five children, claiming that their mother is unfit to care for them. Despite the wintry weather and icy roads, Rees and Lydia set out for New York. There's nothing they can do for Mouse legally, though, and they reluctantly set out for home. But before they've travelled very far, they receive more startling news: Maggie Whitney has been found murdered, and Mouse is the prime suspect.

     April 14, 2014
     At the start of Kuhns’s intriguing third late-18th-century historical (after 2013’s Death of a Dyer), traveling weaver Will Rees and his new wife, Lydia, leave their Maine farm for a wintry trip to the isolated village of Dover Springs, N.Y., where their Shaker friend, Sister Hannah, aka “Mouse,” has been accused of kidnapping Maggie Whitney’s five children after finding their mother too drunk to care for them. En route, Will and Lydia get word that Maggie has been murdered, probably by Mouse. On arrival in Dover Springs, Will struggles to pry information out of the close-mouthed residents, nearly all of whom prove to be hiding dreadful secrets. At times, the tribulations of the impoverished Whitney children threaten to overwhelm the story, but readers will sympathize with Will, whose interactions with the children spur deep guilt about how uninvolved he was in the raising of David, his grown son. Agent: Mitchell S. Waters, Curtis Brown.

     July 27, 2015
     Book three in librarian Kuhns’s historical series featuring Maine weaver-farmer and part-time sleuth Will Rees and his wife, Lydia, finds the couple braving the winter of 1797 to travel to a Shaker community in upstate New York, where their friend, Sister Hannah Moore, has been accused of kidnapping a widow’s five children. When the widow is found murdered, Will takes it upon himself to find the real killer. Reader Berneis, whose narration finds the sweet spot between soothing and alert, is careful to create voices that compliment Kuhns’s very human, fully dimensional characters. Berneis portrays Will as thoughtful and serious, a man yearning to do the right thing. Lydia is lighter, a gentle voice suggesting someone who looks for and finds the after-storm rainbow. Sister Hannah sounds naive but filled with angry indignation at the decisions of the town elders. The elders are mainly stiff and unyielding. Kuhns saves the who- and the whydunnit for the end, but Berneis keeps listeners captivated all the way through. A Minotaur hardcover.

   • content: In the third Will Rees series, set in post-Revolutionary America, Will and his new wife, Lydia, a former Shaker, make a winter trek across Maine to New York to help Lydia's dear friend, Hannah Moore, a Shaker woman who is accused of kidnapping the five children of a neglectful mother. Narrator Susie Berneis brings warmth, intelligence, and credibility to the itinerant weaver-farmer-detective as he works to prove Hannah's innocence. When the children's mother is found murdered, Hannah becomes the prime suspect. Berneis keeps the story on an even keel with her understated delivery. As Rees attempts to uncover the truth, Berneis painstakingly develops each character in the secretive Shaker community, until the carefully buried truth is revealed. Berneis makes this worthwhile listening. S.J.H. © AudioFile 2015, Portland, Maine
