Meer over het boek

Set in the historic Belpher Castle in Hampshire, the narrative unfolds with a sense of urgency, reflecting modern storytelling's fast pace. The current Lord Marshmoreton, a widower, navigates family dynamics with his two children: the nearly twenty-one-year-old Percy and the twenty-year-old Patricia. The castle is also home to Lady Caroline Byng, Lord Marshmoreton's sister, who has a controversial past linked to her wealthy late husband. The story hints at deeper histories and relationships, all while maintaining a brisk tempo.
