(4,588 Sterne; 17 Bewertungen)
CLARA VAUGHAN, the young heroine, narrator, and namesake for R. D. Blackmore’s early detective novel, is determined to solve the mystery of her father’s murder—a crime that occurred when she was only 10 years of age. Volume II of the trilogy continues the account of Clara’s adventures, romances, and encounters with many eccentric characters, when, years later, she devotes herself to unraveling the mystery. As Clara explains in an early chapter: “How that deed was done, I learned at once, and will tell. By whom and why it was done, I have given my life to learn.” R. D. Blackmore, undoubtedly better known for his later novel LORNA DOONE, published this book anonymously in 1864. - Summary by lubee930 (7 hr 19 min)

compassion turns into a fatuous dog lovers fancy in part 2. dumbstruck to find Richard Doddridge Blackmore comparison of part1 to part 2. It seems like an entirely different writer Fact: your dogs do not understand you, nor love you. Why not take a lonely neighbor for a walk or adopt a homeless person.

Even more intriguing than Volume I (see reviews on that, please), Clara’s life takes an unexpected turn, we learn more of her eccentric friends, there’s a thieving ghost, more heartache for Clara, a history of her uncle,... now I must see how it all ends in Volume III.
