Hester: A Story of Contemporary Life
De Mrs. Oliphant
Duração20h 48m
Sobre este audiolivro
A fiercely independent young woman refuses to conform to the suffocating expectations of Victorian high society, choosing instead to chart her own perilous course. Confronted by a formidable matriarch who controls the family's banking empire, she must navigate a dangerous game of financial intrigue and marital maneuvering. As betrayal looms and fortunes hang in the balance, her sharp intellect becomes her only weapon against ruin. Step into a world where polite parlor conversations mask ruthless ambition and a woman's true power is severely tested.
