À propos de cet audio
Brought to you by Penguin.
Miles from anywhere, the isolated mansion Darracott Place is presided over by the irascible Lord Darracott.
The recent drowning of his eldest son has done nothing to improve his temper. For now he must send for the unknown offspring of the uncle whom the family are never permitted to mention. Yet none of that beleaguered family are prepared for the arrival of the weaver's brat and heir apparent....
Yet again Georgette Heyer shows the qualities that made her one of the most successful and best-loved romantic novelists of her age, and why her popularity endures to this day.

Horry Winwood doesn't play by the rules. So when her family are near ruin and her sister is about to enter a loveless marriage to a wealthy man to settle the family debts, young and headstrong Horry proposes to marry him instead. As her new husband's attentions fall elsewhere, Horry feels increasingly unhappy. Then she meets the attractive and dangerous Lord Lethbridge, and her days suddenly become more exciting. But there is bad blood between Horry's husband and Lord Lethbridge, and as complications and deceptions mount, the social tangle grows ever trickier to unpick.

Excellent narration
I’ve always loved this story and have read and listened to other productions of it. This one however is hands down the best narrator I’ve heard for it. He crates very distinct voices and manages Hugo’s north country accent beautifully.

The reader does justice to the quality of the novel. Georgette Heyer would be proud.
The reader was fabulous! He had a separate voice for every character. The reading was very smooth, and best of all, Hugo's voice sounds exactly like Sean Bean. Georgette Heyer has always provided delightful stories and it was nice to finally have an audible version of her books. I've been reading her novels since I was in my teens and this new way of enjoying them is fantastic.
