Book Description

Excerpt from Hope Deferred, Vol. 3 of 3 Thus the Count and Countess de Lutz began their new life. No sooner was their arrival known in Amonville than an influx of visitors poured in upon them. The Count had expected that such would be the case, and made no attempt at seclusion. He hoped that Marietta's imperfect knowledge of French would prevent her acquiring a too decided taste for society. Nothing he feared so much for their common peace as idle gossip.
