The Thrushcross Chronicles: The complete novels of The Thrushcross Chronicles (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798388275493)

This is the complete Thrushcross Chronicles trilogy.

In Leaving Thrushcross, Harriet's deals with the fallout from her beloved uncle's death. Her parents devoted all their time and energy to the upkeep of Thrushcross Grange, their crumbling ancestral mansion, so she grew up living with her Uncle Harry. Everyone knew she would inherit his millions, which her parents planned to use to save Thrushcross Grange. When Uncle Harry dies suddenly, his estranged wife claims the inheritance instead. Harriet finds herself under pressure from multiple people, leading to intense conflicts in all areas of her life-friends, family, boyfriend-that reveal the truth underlying the façade of her life. Harriet gradually learns to stand up for herself and seek out what she really wants, rather than being the pawn of her family and boyfriend.

In The Icarus Triptych, Harriet's new life expands her horizons and she has to earn her own way, but complications ensue as the people she was relying on leave her high and dry, forcing her to find her feet and make new connections. Harriet is determined to make her own way-but she only gradually understands the damage her childhood has done to her and has to fight through a psychological minefield in order to survive and to rescue her beloved forest land back home before it's bulldozed. Harriet unravels painful family secrets while pursuing an art career and negotiating the highs and lows of a real relationship for the first time. Burning the candle at both ends pushes her to her limits, but in the end, Harriet deals with her past and makes the hard choices in order to become someone who can determine her own future.

In Mazewood, the final installment of The Thrushcross Chronicles, Harriet returns to Thrushcross Grange with plans in progress with her beloved to develop the property into a film studio, but her friends are going through serious crises and the long-term issues with her parents are threatening to blow up and ruin everything. Harriet navigates the complexities of real commitment and acceptance while she and the most important people in her life renegotiate their difficult childhoods from an adult perspective. In the process, Harriet finally builds herself a real and permanent home
