Author R. D. Blackmore first rose to widespread literary acclaim with Lorna Doone, his historical saga following the Doone family of England's West Country. He broadens his creative canvas even more in the epic Clara Vaughn. In it, the plucky protagonist sets about solving the mystery that has defined her entire life: who is responsible for the death of her father? But every time Clara comes closer to solving this puzzle, she is dragged into yet another complex aspect of her family's dark and troubled history. Will heroine Clara Vaughan finally bring her father's killer to justice? Will she be able to find lasting love and stability in the process?
