great read!
Life in the industrial town of Lowell Mass. Story of troubles for Irish immigrants and women's equal treatment while living Christian ideals.
Arabella Newbury has fled the Shaker lifestyle to find independence and make her way in the world. But when her friends and co-workers begin to go missing, she begins to question her decision. This is book 2 in the "Bells of Lowell" series, and I recommend it if you enjoy historical novels.

Excellent author. I am enjoying the series. Very historial and accurate. Since I grew up in New England and my great grandfather and grandfather worked in the mills, it gave me some insight to their lives.
