The Scottish Engineer
The Sunderlands: Book 1
The Scottish Engineer is the first in an exciting new series of novellas — The Sunderlands — by Elizabeth Leydin.
The Sunderlands are a family split between the original Scottish Catholic clan, and the Anglican English off-shoot. But family comes before religion, and the Sunderlands’ lives may vary, but their loyalty to their brothers and cousins does not. Until, that is, it’s time to go courting…
The Scottish Engineer is a story of sabotage and love, set in the industrial heartland of Birmingham in Muffet's Tinware manufactory. Rory Sunderland and Muffet's daughter Caroline must solve the mystery of a treacherous engineer, and convince Mr Muffet that Catholic Rory can marry his daughter.
