Alice of Old Vincennes by Maurice Thompson audiobook.
Genre: history
This entertaining book of adventure, love and war was a Bestseller in 1900 and 1901. The heroine Alice Roussillon is a brave young woman who grew up in a small town on the Wabash River in Indiana during the revolutionary war. The characters are all distinctive and compelling. It gives a great insight into the frontier life of that era and includes true historical accounts and personages such as the wicked Lieutenant Governor Henry Hamilton and George Rogers Clarke who was responsible for expelling the British from Fort Sackville in Vincennes in 1779. From the foreword: ' 'Accept, then, this book, which to those who care only for history will seem but an idle romance, while to the lovers of romance it may look strangely like the mustiest history.'

Genre: mystery
In Victorian England, Sybil Secretan is a gentlewoman with a precarious future: she has breeding and pride, but not the money that protects a woman from hard choices. When she is offered the post of housekeeper to her wealthy, eccentric uncle, the arrangement seems like salvation. In a comfortable household, treated with unexpected kindness, Sybil can finally imagine security, and the unspoken promise of inheritance begins to shape every plan she makes. But a new attachment pulls her off the safe path. Drawn to a man whose charm masks danger, Sybil discovers how quickly romance can become a liability in a world that judges women by rumor and outcome. When her uncle suddenly sickens and dies under suspicious circumstances, whispered accusations harden into public scrutiny, and Sybil finds herself trapped between loyalty, fear, and the need to protect her name. As questions tighten around the household and hidden motives surface among family and neighbors, Sybil must navigate deception, shifting alliances, and the brutal arithmetic of money and reputation to learn what truly happened and whether innocence can be proven once doubt takes hold.

The Wishing Well by Mildred A. Wirt Benson audiobook.
Genre: mystery
PENNY PARKER is a teen-aged sleuth and amateur reporter with an uncanny knack for uncovering and solving unusual, sometimes bizarre mysteries. The only daughter of widower Anthony Parker, publisher of the 'Riverview Star,' Penny has been raised to be self-sufficient, outspoken, innovative, and extraordinarily tenacious. Her cheerful, chatty manner belies a shrewd and keenly observant mind. Penny was the creation of Mildred A. Wirt, who was also the author of the original Nancy Drew series (under the pseudonym Carolyn Keene). Wirt became frustrated when she was pushed to 'tone down' Nancy Drew and make her less independent and daring. With Penny Parker, Wirt had a freer hand and received full credit. Wirt once said, ' 'I always thought Penny Parker was a better Nancy Drew than Nancy is.' In THE WISHING WELL, the once-grand, now abandoned Marborough Estate and its legendary stone wishing well have become the center of odd happenings. The reclusive owner unexpectedly returns, only to lock herself secretively away in the mansion. Soon after, an ancient stone is unearthed on the estate, upon which is carved a 400-year-old message. Or is it a hoax? Who are the two strangers who repeatedly visit the wishing well in the dead of night? Penny boldly investigates, certain that danger threatens her new friend Rhoda, a gifted, but poverty-stricken artist.
