A New York Times Bestselling Author
London, 1895. Trapped by oppressive marriages and societal expectations, three women receive invitations to an afternoon tea at the home of Lady Duxbury. Beneath the genteel facade of the gathering lies a secret book club - a sanctuary where they can discover freedom, sisterhood, and the courage to rewrite their stories. Eleanor Clarke, Rose Wharton, and Lavinia Cavendish are drawn to Lady Duxbury. As the women form deep friendships, they uncover secrets about their marriages, their pasts, and the risks they face. Their courage is their only weapon in the oppressive world that has kept them silent, but when secrets are deadly, one misstep could cost them everything.
