The Light at Wyndcliff by Sarah E. Ladd is the 3rd installment in The Cornwall Novels. Each book in the series can be read as a standalone. I thought The Light at Wyndcliff was well-written with developed characters. The main characters as well as the major secondary characters have depth. I appreciated that the author took the time to do this. There are vivid descriptions of the estate, the moorland, town, and coastline. It allowed me to visualize the scenes. Liam Twethewey is a strong, male character. He was eager to take over the Wyndcliff Estate and make changes that would benefit the estate as well as the tenants. He may have made some unpopular decisions, but Liam knew they were the right ones to make. Evelyn Bray grew up in a discordant household with her mother unhappy and at odds with her grandfather, Rupert Bray. The mother liked the lavish lifestyle, and she was never going to be content until she got it back. I found myself yelling at Evelyn to stand up for herself and make her own decisions. It was interesting to learn about the china clay pits and how they extracted the clay from the ground. I also found it fascinating to learn about the shipwrecks and the laws regarding the recovery of cargo. I could tell the author did her research for this story. I was shocked at how people would rush to grab the goods without concern for the crew floundering in the water. I like how the story wrapped up and the epilogue that provided a complete ending. The Cornwall Novels was a wonderful series with a great conclusion. The Light at Wyndcliff is a unique Regency tale with the rocky Cornish coastline, suspicious shipwrecks, the clay pit project, shocking secrets, a gallant gentleman, a guarded grandfather, and the striking steward's granddaughter.
