Story
Marion Crawford was 22 when she became governess to the young princesses Elizabeth and Margaret in 1933. A working-class girl with progressive ideas, she had intended to teach children in the Edinburgh slums. Instead, she had a ringside seat at some of the most seismic events of the 20th century. The castles and palaces housed a family frozen in time. But outside the royal gates, poverty and unemployment were breeding unrest in 1930s Britain. Hitler was on the rise in Europe. If royalty was to survive, it must draw closer to the people.

predictable and annoying main character
lacks the wit and joie 'de vivre of Holden's earlier books. the main character was self centred and repeatedly relies on men to rescue her. What a shame.

A bit of a none-discript story without massive excitement or incidents. Funnily enough though I had to keep listening to find out what and how the story was going to end. Enjoyable and entertaining it did end rather quickly . Worth the read / listen .

Three Weddings and a Scandal.
I chose this book because I’d read The Governess by the same author and it was very good.
This book was utter rubbish. At times I wondered if it had been written by a 13 year old.
The narration did not help either. I even tried blocking out her voice to visualize the words.
