To The Manor Drawn

A Charming Tale of Inheritance and Intrigue

To The Manor Drawn by Leslie Ann Bosher (2007, Pier) invites readers into the world of Grace Haversham, a spirited young woman who unexpectedly inherits her late aunt’s crumbling estate in rural Sussex. As Grace arrives at Hawthorne Manor, she discovers that old walls hold new mysteries—and that some legacies are worth fighting for.

Grace’s New Beginning

Struggling to balance nostalgia with necessity, Grace decides to restore the manor’s faded glory. Armed with determination and a touch of practical know-how, she rallies local craftspeople, organizes community fundraisers, and redecorates dusty rooms—one peeling wallpaper at a time.

A Cast of Endearing Characters

From the charming but enigmatic groundskeeper, Thomas Reed, to Harriet, the nosy village historian who knows every scandal yet shares only when it suits her, Bosher populates the story with unforgettable personalities. Each ally—and adversary—brings a fresh layer of humor, warmth, and suspense.

Themes of Home and Heritage

At its heart, this novel explores what it means to belong. As Grace uncovers family secrets hidden in attic trunks and forgotten letters, she learns that preservation is more than brick and mortar—it’s about honoring the lives that shaped the past.

An Uplifting Escape

Perfect for fans of heart-warming women’s fiction and English countryside charm, To The Manor Drawn is a delightful journey of renewal, friendship, and the enduring power of home.
