A Light In The Attic: The Unusual Love Story of Miss Abigail

Twenty-seven -year-old Abigail Gifford, a writer, raised in a London orphanage, travels to Big Bend Texas to meet her biological aunt, Miss Hannah Comstock, her only living relative for the first-time, to learn more about her mother’s family. However, it turns out that Auntie Hannah, an outspoken Texas native battle-ax, who has invited Abigail to stay at her house for the summer, had, in fact, left for Mexico before her arrival to pursue an old lover of hers, leaving Abigail on her own to do, or to discover her surroundings with only Maggie, her aunt’s feisty Irish housekeeper to keep an eye on her. Upon arriving at Big Bend, Abigail meets two sweet older ladies, Miss Charlotte and Lily May, a freed slave, friends of her Auntie Hanna, who burn an oil lamp in their attic window every Friday night. A light that intrigues Abigail Gifford so much so, she starts to investigate, and where her curiosity encounters an answer she will never forget her entire life. While in Big Bend visiting, Abigail meets a Clint Ward, a handsome and famous fiction writer from Austin, who happens to resemble Miss Charlotte's decease husband. Realizing they have many things in common, and believing in the supernatural as well as reincarnation, they discover many things about themselves as they fall in love.Read more
