From the #1 New York Times bestselling author comes an epic
saga of intrigue and mystique set in Edwardian England.
Cavendon Hall is home to two families, the aristocratic
Inghams and the Swanns who serve them. Charles Ingham, the
sixth Earl of Mowbray, lives there with his wife Felicity
and their six children. Walter Swann, the premier male of
the Swann family, is valet to the earl. His wife Alice, a
clever seamstress who is in charge of the countess's
wardrobe, also makes clothes for the four daughters.
For centuries, these two families have lived side-by-side,
beneath the backdrop of the imposing Yorkshire manor. Lady
Daphne, the most beautiful of the Earl’s daughters, is about
to be presented at court when a devastating event changes
her life and threatens the Ingham name. With World War I
looming, both families will find themselves tested in ways
they never thought possible. Loyalties will be challenged
and betrayals will be set into motion. In this time of
uncertainty, one thing is sure: these two families will
never be the same again.
Cavendon Hall is Barbara Taylor Bradford at her very best,
and its sweeping story of secrets, love, honor, and betrayal
will have readers riveted up to the very last page.
