A solid story. A RESPECTABLE TRADE was an interesting (and needed) look at some of England's slave trading history.
Mehuru was kidnapped from Africa, sold to Josiah and his wife, Frances. Frances falls in love with Mehuru and an amazing string of events is set off from there. I did feel it was slow in parts, and perhaps a little far-fetched in the end, but still a good story! I always appreciate Philippa Gregory's ability to set tone and atmosphere.
A solid 'B' for me.
