First published in 1935, Young Renny takes us even further back in the
Whiteoak family saga to 1906. Renny, the young master of Jalna, is just
eighteen. His twenty-year-old sister Meg is engaged to marry the young
man next door, Maurice Vaughan Uncle Nick and Uncle Ernest, now in their
fifties, have squandered their inheritances abroad on high living and
reside again at Jalna. But the plot thickens further, when two outsiders
join the mix: A gypsy woman, who seduces Renny, and a distant cousin
from Ireland, who befriends Gran, moves into Jalna, and spies on the
family. This is book 4 of 16 in The Whiteoak Chronicles. It is
followed by Whiteoak Heritage*.*
