CS published three anonymous novels over a span of almost thirty years, beginning under the patronage of her novelist cousin Lady Charlotte Bury . Meanwhile she had become an Evangelical Christian, who put her fervent belief into her final novel, and went on to books of direct religious instruction, published under her name. The first, a work of theology, appeared during her lifetime, and the other two, of instructional acrostics for children, after her death.
