Mrs. Lirriper's Legacy - Charles Dickens

"Treachery don't come natural to beaming youth; but trust and pity, love and constancy, –they do, thank God!" In this follow-up to Mrs. Lirriper's Lodgings, in which Mrs. Lirriper took in lodgers to make ends meet following her husband's death, the sweet and heart-warming stories of life in Mrs. Lirriper's house continue. Amidst trouble with her brother-in-law, a continuous rivalry and a neighbourhood fire, Mrs. Lirriper discovers that a dying man in Paris is trying to get a hold of her. All the hopefulness of the first book come to fruition in Mrs. Lirriper's Legacy and it is a worthy conclusion.
