About this audiobook
In early 1900s London, social standing is everything—and a single scandal can upend a family’s future. When Beatrice Bennett announces a pregnancy that threatens an advantageous marriage, her mother devises a ruthless plan to preserve reputation at the cost of one daughter’s life. Clara, an aspiring artist, refuses to be sacrificed and must navigate a claustrophobic world of manners, obligation and hidden loyalties. Interwoven with scenes from the city’s undertakers and intimate domestic spaces, Gilded Secrets of Oliver explores the pressures placed on women, the corrosive power of secrecy, and the quiet courage needed to defy expectation. Lushly atmospheric and emotionally charged, this Edwardian novel pulls readers into a morally complex society where love, duty and survival collide.
