Davenport House by Marie Silk Davenport House by Marie Silk 4 stars out of 5 The action of this novel is set in Pennsylvania in the countryside and is centered on a young woman who is part of the rich class. The narrative is fast-paced at times and very slow at others and reminds of the bleak Dickensian narrative at times. The language is appropriate for younger readers and seems to be a little sketchy at times. Nevertheless, the plot is strong and presents enough twists to make it interesting and hold attention. The main character, Mary, is well defined and her evolution throughout the novel is constant. She grows with the story and, in general, is a likable character. The secondary characters are well described and each of them adds value to the story. I consider that this is an interesting read especially if someone is addicted to dark mysteries.
