- Book Synopsis
- A newlywed with a deadly secret Aurora Floyd's the spoiled, only daughter of rich widower Archibald Floyd; the result of his scandalous marriage to a penurious actress. Aurora grows up a renowned beauty, known locally as 'fast' for her unladylike habits - hunting and riding horses - she however is undaunted and confident. But after her return from a French finishing-school, Aurora returns oddly changed, gaunt, worried as if harbouring some terrible secret. Time passes, Aurora's engaged to be married but her past threatens to ruin her chance of happiness. Braddon's follow up to the immensely successful Lady Audley's Secret is a once both a mystery and the moving coming-of-age story of a young woman carrying the burden of a past with bad decisions.
- About The Author
- Mary Elizabeth Braddon was a British Victorian era popular novelist. She was an extremely prolific writer, producing some 75 novels with very inventive plots. The most famous one is her first novel, Lady Audley's Secret (1862), which won her recognition and fortune as well. The novel has been in print ever since, and has been dramatized and filmed several times. Braddon also founded Belgravia Magazine (1866), which presented readers with serialized sensation novels, poems, travel narratives, and biographies, as well as essays on fashion, history, and science. She also edited Temple Bar Magazine. Braddon's legacy is tied to the Sensation Fiction of the 1860s.
