Best Kept Secret opens a moment after the end of The Sins of the Father, with
the resolution of the trial and the triumphant marriage of Harry Clifton and
Elizabeth Barrington, finally uniting their family. Harry, now a bestselling
novelist, Emma, their son Sebastian, and orphaned Jessica make a new life for
themselves, but all is not as happy and secure as it could be. Emma's brother,
Giles, is engaged to a woman who may be more interested in Barrington's fortune and
title than in a long and happy marriage. And Sebastian, though he is bright, isn't
quite the hard worker that his father was at school, and finds a hard time
resisting the temptations that his somewhat unsavory friends provide.
It all comes to a head when a new villain is uncovered, a face from the past with
grudges against both Harry and Giles—Fisher, who tortured Harry at school and
later took credit for Giles' heroics during the war. Fisher teams up with Giles'
now ex-wife to wreak havoc on Giles' latest election as well as meddle with affairs
inside Barringtons, while Harry and Emma must deal with a new scheme that
Sebastian has unwittingly fallen into with a supposed friend. The drama continues
for Harry Clifton and his family, bringing this mesmerizing saga into the 1960s.
