It was easy for Elizabeth. She married the man she loved, bore him two children and made a home for him which was the envy of their friends. It was harder for Ruth. She married Elizabeth’s son and then found that, somehow, she could never quite measure up. Isolation, deceit and betrayal fill the gaps between the two individual women and between their different worlds. In this complex thriller, Philippa Gregory deploys all her insight into what women want and what women fear, as Ruth confronts the shifting borders of her own sanity.

For years, Isobel Latimer has composed serious novels for serious people, but to dwindling acclaim and ever-more dwindling gain. Now her husband is ill and she must carry their financial burden alone, and in secret. But if the public don’t want careful moral fables any longer, why not provide an outrageous tale of sex and satanism, and an author to match? The incomparable, uncontrollable Zelda de Vere is born.

Very enjoyable
I really enjoyed the last book in this trilogy. I found the story interesting and a very good summer listen. The characters were well developed and I will miss them for a bit.
The narrator did a good job of capturing the characters personalities and moods.
I'd recommend this to anyone looking for a historical tale encompassing polish and grime.

Great listen
Listened to the three books of this saga. All really well read & engaging. I found it hard to stop listening when I should turn off to get things done! The history incorporated & characters were realistic & was easy to picture as I was listening the the story unfold. Definitely worth a listen.

Super Enjoyable
I really enjoyed this wonderful story. At times I thought it was hopeless for the characters but it’s not good to assume anything. Solid story, lots of twists and turns.
