The truth could cost her everything....
Olivia Mott didn't intend to lie. Somehow, it just happened. And wasn't it all Lady Charlotte's fault anyway?
Now Olivia's position as assistant chef at Pullman's elegant Hotel Florence is dependant upon her keeping her secrets. And sometimes lies have a way of leading to other lies. Should Olivia admit her real past and accept the consequences or keep quiet in order to preserve her comfortable new circumstances?
Deception seems to be part of everyday life in the company town of Pullman, Illinois, where the grand Pullman Palace Car is manufactured. Samuel Howard, Olivia's friend and the town manager, seems to think everything is fine, but Olivia observes something quite different. Could it be that Olivia is not the only one harboring secrets?
The first in the Postcards From Pullman series, In the Company of Secrets takes readers back to 1892 and gives a grand picture of what life was like then. Olivia struggles to fend for herself and finds herself in over her head on more than one occasion.
Readers who enjoy historical Christian fiction will find this book charming.... I highly recommend this book, but warn readers to be prepared to buy the next book in the series as well.

In the Company of Secrets
The plot was not intriguing. I actually find myself not liking Olivia-the lead of the story. She has many chances to come clean from her lies, with all in her life-but she does not, and the usual ramifications at the end of the book. You could see the ending after the first few chapters. I did like seeing the town of Pullman, nicely described. I had the delight of dining at the restored Hotel Florence a decade ago, being a birthday dinner with my brother Anthony. Snowy Feb. evening, just added the to the atmosphere of the night. All I can remember-the herb rolls were amazing, and the soup divine. I gues I could give this book 3 stars, but I am not just feeling it today. Yes, I will read the next in the series, for Marshall Fields store is in the plot line-another old friend -longed missed by me-due the the evil empire known as Macy's. Hiss! BOO!
