Więcej o książce
When Norman Crowne, a successful writer, is accused of murder, his children are too young to grasp the catastrophe: in 19th-century England, such suspicion ruins him. The twins, Emily and William, lose their mother early, and soon after his acquittal, Crowne dies alone in South America, leaving the siblings orphaned. Blessed with good nature, beauty, and considerable wealth, Emily and William grow up carefree with their aunt and her children. However, their name carries a scandalous weight, placing them in the public eye—like soap bubbles, everyone waits for them to burst. Tensions and rivalries arise among the cousins. The Crownes must confront the dubious fame of their father, which follows them into adulthood—with devastating consequences.
