Story
A stormy evening of olive and silver was closing in, as Father Brown, wrapped in a grey Scotch plaid, came to the end of a grey Scotch valley and beheld the strange castle of Glengyle. It stopped one end of the glen or hollow like a blind alley; and it looked like the end of the world. Rising in steep roofs and spires of seagreen slate in the manner of the old French-Scotch chateaux, it reminded an Englishman of the sinister steeple-hats of witches in fairy tales; and the pine woods that rocked round the green turrets looked, by comparison, as black as numberless flocks of ravens.

Kent, estate del 1797. Nella splendida cornice di Godmersham Park, tra tè serviti in porcellana fine, passeggiate tra i roseti e balli in grande stile, Jane Austen dovrebbe godersi un soggiorno di tutto riposo. Ma il richiamo del mistero (e dei guai) è sempre troppo forte per lasciarla tranquilla. Peccato che la situazione si complichi con l'arrivo di una giovane donna dall'identità incerta e dal fascino indiscutibile, che sembra aver stregato la vecchia signora... e non solo. Chi è questa seducente intrusa? E cosa nasconde davvero?

Estella Ecker has returned to Rockfall House, the last place on earth she wants to be. Years after she ran away from her overbearing father, she has been forced back home to walk in his footsteps, teaching at the college he dominated and living in the fabulous home where he entertained artists and scholars for decades—and perhaps she owns it now, because her mercurial mother has disappeared. At the center of everything—the whispers, the rumors, the secrets—is her father’s library of rare books, which she had been forbidden to touch while he was alive to stop her.

Story
In 1934, Lola was on top of the world. Dubbed "The Siren" by MGM, she was a protégé of Louis B. Mayer, the original talkie sex symbol before the rise of stars like Carole Lombard and Jean Harlow. But like Harlow, Lola Grayson had a dominant stage mother and bad health that struggled to meet the demand of the Golden Age of Hollywood. Exploited, pushed, primped, and promoted as MGM's biggest star, Lola Grayson made one fatal mistake—falling in love with fellow MGM star Robert Taggart. Together, they were the golden couple that audiences demanded to see.
