Who Was Lost and Is Found: A Novel by Margaret Oliphant follows Mrs. James Ogilvy, a devoted mother in the quiet village of Eskholm, whose life is shadowed by the long absence of her son, Robert. As she waits with hope and reflects on family, duty, and loss, the novel explores maternal devotion, the rhythms of rural life, and the emotional journey toward reunion, reconciliation, and the surprises that accompany restored bonds.
