High noon at Talbot’s Cross-roads, with the mercury standing at ninety-eight in the shade—though there was not much shade worth mentioning in the immediate vicinity of the Cross-roads post-office, about which, upon the occasion referred to, the few human beings within sight and sound were congregated. There were trees enough a few hundred yards away, but the post-office stood boldly and unflinchingly in the blazing sun. The roads crossing each other stretched themselves as far as the eye could follow them, the red clay transformed into red dust which even an ordinarily lively imagination might have fancied was red hot. The shrill, rattling cry of the grasshoppers, hidden in the long yellow sedge-grass and drouth-smitten corn, pierced the stillness now and then with a suddenness startling each time it broke forth, because the interval between each of the pipings was given by the hearers to drowsiness or heated unconscious naps.

The plot twists In Connection with the De Willoughby Claim certainly keep a reader on her toes, but a chunk of the writing is schmaltzy and overblown. I know Burnett is not a contemporary writer, but i think I could have used less dramatic and romantic description--getting me to the heart of the plot faster. I do recommend this for someone who is looking for an interesting tale, a romantic escape, a story of good triumphing over evil, and a Job-like hero. I enjoyed the book, but just not enthusiastically because it took so long to get to the point. When the point was reached, it was satisfying but not memorable.Product details
