If you had the perfect life . . . how far would you go to protect it?
Professor Olivia Sweetman has worked hard to achieve the life of her dreams, with a high-flying career as a TV presenter and historian, three children, and a talented husband.

Only one other person knows that Olivia's perfect life is in fact a desperate tangle of lies: Vivian Tester, the socially awkward, middle-aged housekeeper of a Sussex manor who found the Victorian diary of a pioneering female surgeon on which Olivia's new biography is based.

In a gripping narrative that shifts between London, Sussex, and the idyllic South of France, Olivia and Vivian will learn knife-edged truths about themselves and discover just how far each will go to protect her reputation.©2017 Lucy Atkins (P)2017 WF Howes Ltd.

This story is unusual and well written, the character's well drawn. I found the main protagonist, Olivia, self obsessed, shallow and generally unlikeable. I warmed to Vivian more. Unfortunately, the experience of listening was ruined by the narration, specifically, that of Julia Franklin. In the early chapters, she moved towards and away from the microphone quite a lot and this resulted in my being unable to set the volume at a good level. Worse, when she voiced any character sounding angry, or upset, and whenever she voiced a child, she became very high pitched. This had me leaping for the volume control and feeling like pulling out my own teeth. There really is no need for it to be read this way. Sadly, a narrator can make or break the experience of listening to an audiobook.

Ruined for me by Julia Franklin's narration!

This was an interesting and convoluted story. I moved between Kindle and Audible. I enjoyed the story which was well written but it was too long. Whole chapters could have been edited out. Interminable pages on Bertie nearly made me give up.
The two main characters were both unappealing. Neither was admirable. However the developing narrative depended on this. Olivia was self obsessed. Vivian was mentally disturbed by her own obsessions.
The loose ends and the strange ending I thought were positive.

good story but needed editing

Enjoyed the story, but felt the ending was very abruot. Even re listened a couple of times as thought I had somehow missed a chapter!

I really enjoyed this book it was so well read . I was gripped when the plot really thickened and found myself finding time to listen to more .

A fantastic listen

Interesting historical and scientific themes, especially in the context of discrimination against women. Plot was initially intriguing but it dragged on and became so involved as to stretch credulity. It also needed editing. Almost very good but fell short of early promise in a disappointing way. I thought the narration was ok. I didn't find it as grating as other reviewers.

Interesting themes but never really came together
