Desperate, Sam turns to the renowned Second Sons agency for help. Inquiry agent, William Trenchard, is both troubled and fascinated by Sam, and immediately suspects "he" is a "she." Unfortunately, before William can discover what lies beneath the brick dust and sun-bleached hair, they are plunged into a maelstrom of deceit and murder.

Really?
By Peggy
The plot on this one got sillier and sillier. I was willing to suspend my disbelief for the sake of the writing which was pretty good. But, when the heroine disguised as a male, plans to marry her boss's daughter and continue to live as a bricklayer, I got a little queasy. When the hero drinks Merlot (I doubt you would find that item on a bill of lading in 1819 England,) I really became disenchanted. I hung in there until the end when it really got stupid.

Winderful Read
By LAS Reviewer
After thirteen years of masquerading as a man, will Sarah be able to live as a woman again?
When a tragic fire robbed Sarah Sanderson of her family, she fled and assumed the identity of her brother Sam. Thirteen years later, she has a steady job working as a bricklayer. Though her life is hard, she is satisfied and remembers very little of her life before the fire. Unfortunately, someone has not forgotten her. Suddenly Sarah finds her life in danger. Desperate, she seeks the help of an inquiry agent, William Trenchard.
William is immediately intrigued by Sarah and soon discovers she is a woman. Even though she doesn't have much to offer, he feels the need to protect her and takes the case. When another attempt is made on Sarah's life, William realizes he uncovered a much larger mystery than he or Sarah ever imagined. Through it all, Sarah begins to have feelings for William. She finds herself wishing she knew more about being a woman. Could he ever love someone as sunburned and simple as her? William also finds himself falling in love with Sarah, but is acutely aware that when the case is solved, Sarah will resume her proper place in society, a place beyond his reach. Will their differences tear them apart or will they take charge of their own destinies?
Sarah was definitely an entertaining heroine. She certainly didn't fit the mold of a rich aristocrat. Though her life is in danger, she's not a damsel in distress. She is strong and stubborn and insists on taking an active part in attempting to solve the mystery surrounding the fire as well as the current attempts on her life.
Though Sarah can work as hard as any man, she has no idea how to behave around William once she realizes she's fallen in love with him. While trying to figure out her feelings for William, Sarah also faces a tough choice. She can assume her rightful place in society as an aristocrat, but that would mean giving up the freedom she values when she lives as a man. Will Sarah have to choose between love and freedom? Can she find a way to have them both?
William is the perfect hero for Sarah. At first they seemed extremely mismatched. Sarah has led a simple and rough life, while William has led a privileged one. He also has a fondness for fine clothing. As a result, people tend to underestimate his abilities as an inquiry agent. Even Sarah doubts him when they first meet. However, beneath the velvet and gold is an intelligent and caring man who is more than a match for Sarah's strong will.
Not only is The Bricklayer's Helper a great romance, but it is also a wonderful blend of the historical and mystery genres. I found myself mulling over the clues when I wasn't reading the book and trying to guess who the mastermind behind the fires might be. Ms. Corwin had me guessing right up until the end and I was genuinely surprised when the culprit was revealed.
I thoroughly enjoyed reading The Bricklayer's Helper. The characters were unique and the romance was sweet. Anyone who likes their romance wrapped in a mystery will definitely want to check out The Bricklayer's Helper.

Good Mystery Set in Early 19th Century England
By James Dainis
Sarah has been masquerading as a man and working as a bricklayer for thirteen years ever since the age of eleven. She was orphaned when her home, that of the Marquess of Longmoor, burned down and all her family had been killed. She gets a note from a Major Pickering saying he has some information concerning that fire. Before she can meet him he is stabbed to death on the street in front of her. Not knowing to whom to turn for help she goes into the Second Sons Inquiry agency and hires William Trenchard to look into the matter. An amused and idle William decides to take the case and the one pound retainer but soon he realizes that his client's life itself is in danger.
There are a few twists and turns to think about in this novel. Sarah is engaged to the boss's daughter and is to marry her within the week. What will she tell her bride on their wedding night? William finds himself strangely attracted to the young man. When he discovers his client's true sex and that she is one of the aristocracy he still is confused. As a paid employee, he no longer is in her social status and must ignore his feelings. Sarah also develops feelings for William and assumes that he could not love a woman who has worked as a common laborer.
There is romance in this novel but it is not overly done. One can get a bit frustrated with the two protagonists and want to give them both a good shake and tell them to express their feelings for one another and get it over with. But, there is still a lot of good mystery. And, how will Sarah ever take her place in society after being missing for thirteen years and not learning any of the social graces?
Although the novel is told in the third person, the chapters vary from seeing the events through William's eyes and seeing the events through Sarah's eyes. That helps to give a lot of depth to the characters.
One can get a very good look at life in early 1800s England and the strict social barriers that existed between classes. Although William is the younger son of an upper class family, his decision to work as an employee puts him in a lower social strata. If he were to call at the home of a former colleague, the butler may inform him that the tradesman's entrance is to the rear of the house. It would also not be suitable for him to go to one of his former clubs even as the guest of a current member. Things like that, aside from the mystery and engaging sub plots, make for interesting reading.
