Sanditon Season 2

Within a week of Charlotte’s retreat to Willingdon, it seemed a plague had come to Sanditon. It began with a catarrh and an insidious enervation, a growing pallor and a vicious fever that racked the sufferer with blazes and shaking chills. It took hold among the working folk, whose poor diets and drafty homes made them vulnerable, the old and the young stricken first, but it was blind to class and station. It made its way to the tradesmen, the gentry, even to the great houses; Sanditon House and Trafalgar House and Arundel Park, the estate Lord Babington had let, all had their afflicted. After only a few days, Arundel Park’s garden was overgrown, missing the assiduous care of its gardener, the tea was late at Sanditon House and the Trafalgar House was loud with the cried of the unattended children and then, as they fell ill, Alicia first and then the rest, most terribly quiet.

I thought you and Mrs. Campion would be heading back to London.

As my friend PD said, here comes the Bride 👰🏻
