Sobre este audiolivro

A country doctor's decision to remarry throws his daughter's quiet life into disarray, introducing a step-sister who is as dazzling as she is troublesome. The intricate dance of courtship and social climbing reveals the hidden motivations of the gentry. It is a masterful observation of the extraordinary drama found in ordinary lives. Enjoy a rich, satirical look at the bonds that hold families together or tear them apart.
