BRADDON, M.E.: Lady Audley's Secret (Unabridged)
Lady Audley is universally adored: beautiful, kind and charming, she enamours all whom she meets. It is not until the strange disappearance of widower George Talboys that her behaviour takes an odd turn. George’s friend Robert Audley, Lady Audley’s nephew-in-law, is on the case; upper-class layabout-turned-detective, he is determined to get to the bottom of things. Mystery, mayhem, madness and despair: Lady Audley’s Secret, Braddon’s most successful work, is a gripping sensation novel.
