With neither ancient lineage nor title, they struggle for entrance into elite Regency society. Finally, aided by an impecunious viscount, they gain access to the drawing rooms of England's most illustrious houses.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMrs Talbot intends her daughter Jocelyn to marry well, to eliminate the stain of the family's ignoble beginnings. But the young men Jocelyn meets are vacuous, seeing Jocelyn as merely a substantial dowry. Only Lieutenant Barnaby Willow sees the real Jocelyn, but he is deployed to war.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe hypocrisy of fashionable society repulses Jocelyn-beneath the courtly manners she finds deceit, dissipation and vice. She stumbles upon and then is embroiled in a sordid scandal which threatens utter disgrace for the Talbot family. Humiliated and dishonoured, she is sent to a remote house hidden in a hollow of the Yorkshire moors, irrevocably separated from family, friends and any hope of hearing about the lieutenant's fate.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJocelyn's incarceration in the mysterious old mansion forces her to reassess her values - and the values of the society she was so anxious to be part of.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Allie Cresswell Limited\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/03\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781916072060\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 672\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.14lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 1.48d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLarge Print\u003c\/b\u003e","brand":"Allie Cresswell","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42095553773749,"sku":"9781916072060","price":22.94,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_7cb437e1-857e-45f9-a534-a94fe98d6e98.jpg?v=1651587393","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/the-house-in-the-hollow-9781916072060","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
