Publisher's summary

This bundle includes the first two books in the Robinswood series.

In the first book, What Once Was True, two families, one of grandeur and one of the working class, navigate the conflicts associated with the looming war ahead. Despite delusions of grandeur, Lord and Lady Kenefick and their adult children live a life of decayed opulence as the money needed to keep such a house and grounds ever dwindles. Meanwhile, the Murphy family lives and works on the estate and does their best to keep everything running smoothly. Everyone knows their place, but as war looms, both families find themselves drawn into the conflict and begin questioning everything that once was true.

In the second book, Return to Robinswood, years of neglect and abandonment have left the family seat of the Keneficks almost derelict, but the new Lord Kenefick and his charming young wife Kate are determined to breathe life into the old house once more. But the shadows of the past and the war are ever lurking, and there are many who are not willing to see the new Lady Kenefick as anything more than the housekeeper's daughter. Kate’s family, the Murphys, find themselves once more inextricably entwined with both the Keneficks and Robinswood, but this time everything is different — or at least so they hope.

Loved the characters

Some repetition in the second book, but this was a good series for a long drive we had, hoping for book 3!

Thoroughly enjoying historical fiction!

I knew little about the Irish involvement in WWII and I loved getting this introduction. The characters were well filled out and you felt they were someone you could know and like to have a cup of tea with. I listened to both stories back to back and couldn’t wait to get to my next listening binge.
The narrator was spot on and you could easily tell which character was speaking. Thoroughly enjoyable!

Wonderful

I learned a lot about the Irish and maybe why I'm the way I am. And the special bond I had with my sisters. It was a mesmerizing story.

Wonderful! Thoroughly enjoyable story and characters.

Another Jean Grainger set of endearing characters within an historical setting that gives me things to google and learn more. The narration by Caroline Lennon was superb with wonderful accents and voices. Truly delightful!

Absolutely adore this series!

The characters in these novels will pull you in & pull your heart strings! It’s such a good story of triumph, rebuilding, picking of the pieces when life looks nothing like it was or planned. Well worth the credit.

sensational

every single aspect of the books were more than I expected. I was enthralled and loved the mixture of characters so brilliantly brought to life by Grainger. Will read all her work now. the narration was excellent with her mastery of various dialects ...just superbly executed. 5 stars for sure 10 if I could.
