The Lost Manuscript

By: Mollie Rushmeyer

Narrated by: Lesa Wilson

In the vein of The Library of Lost and Found by Phaedra Patrick, a priceless manuscript could be one woman’s key to finding her missing grandmother—and to her own second chance.

It’s not just Ellora Lockwood’s home that’s being emptied as she prepares to sell—her heart seems to be empty too. Since the mysterious disappearance of her beloved Grandma June and separating from her husband, Alex, Ellora has felt adrift. Then comes an invitation from Alex to teach history at a summer program at Alnwick Castle in England. He’s even found information about the location of a medieval manuscript that was her grandmother’s obsession before she vanished.

Warily, Ellora accepts Alex’s offer. Surrounded by lush English countryside and captivating history, she pieces together clues about the manuscript’s whereabouts—and uncovers new questions. Could someone have been sabotaging her grandmother’s work? Anonymous threats lead Ellora to suspect she too may be in danger, but as she and Alex work together, she’s finding strength, new purpose and the courage to see this quest through, wherever it may lead…

Great Story

Love this story. The perfect Christian references worked into a beautiful story with a great mystery to boot.

Love a love story

This geek hooked me from the beginning! So many twists and turns. I was never sure where Alex and Ellora would end up. A cautionary tale to be truthful in all things.

The historical information. Lack of English accent when needed.

Too much repetition and unnecessary detail. The story bored me to the point that I had to keep jumping forward. It could have been an interesting story if it was more streamlined.

Great story

Love the story. It was well written. The narrator was a little monotone. It was hard to tell the difference in characters.

Get on with the story already.....

Oh good grief. The writer has to describe every single thing in a conversation including the cups of tea, sip by sip, and also the leaning forward, the hand of a friend on the arm, etc. 3 hours could have been omitted from this mess with no hinderance to the actual story.

Good start bad end

Story began good. Good idea and plot, but then devolved into a religious proselytizing story
