Description

In 1866, a mysterious drowning at an elite boarding school sets in motion a decades-long saga of ambition, betrayal, and hidden truths. As the lives of a group of young men become irrevocably intertwined, their paths diverge through the glittering ballrooms and shadowy underbelly of Victorian London. This sweeping epic explores the destructive power of greed and lust, as secrets from that fateful day threaten to unravel fortunes and endanger a nation. Ken Follett masterfully weaves a tale of love, loss, and the perilous pursuit of justice against a backdrop of immense social and financial upheaval.
