Explore "The Trials of Triona" by Christopher Ward on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
After her mother's death, Olivia rented the dear old place, the home of her ancestors for nearly twenty-five years, filled with the priceless possessions purchased from the proceeds of the preposterously profitable porcine proclivities of her papa, but haunted by the family ghosts of Berkshire and Chester White. She fled to London to escape her heritage of shame.
There she met Alexis Triona, the famous author of _Rushing Through Russia_. With his clean-shaven face, broad forehead, gray eyes, humorous mouth, he looked the hero that he wasn't. He had faked his book from a stolen diary which he always carried about with him so that, at the proper moment, he might be found out.
