  A golden-haired angel. A grieving husband. A mansion full of dark secrets. 
  When the youthful and penniless governess Lucy Graham captures the heart of the wealthy Sir Michael Audley, she seems to be the very picture of innocence and devotion. Blessed with enchanting beauty and a sunshiny disposition, Lady Audley quickly becomes the beloved darling of Essex county. But behind her delicate, fairy-like façade lies a cold, calculating mind and a past completely shrouded in mystery. 
  Meanwhile, half a world away, a desperate young husband strikes gold in the Australian outback. George Talboys returns to England with a fortune, desperate to reunite with the beloved wife he abandoned years prior to seek a better life. Instead, his arrival is met with a devastating newspaper notice and a freshly dug grave in Ventnor. 
  As George's loyal friend, the apathetic but sharp-minded barrister Robert Audley, is reluctantly drawn into the grieving man's tragic affairs, an eerie convergence of events begins to unfold. What ties a wealthy baronet's new bride to a dead woman's empty past? And what is hidden in the secret drawer of my lady's jewel-box? 
  In this classic tale of sensation and suspense, James Harvey crafts a masterclass in psychological tension. Lady Audley's Secret peels back the opulent velvet curtains of Victorian high society to reveal a chilling labyrinth of bigamy, betrayal, and buried sins. Will the truth come to light, or will the darkness of Audley Court consume them all?

  A brilliant murder mystery of shifting perspectives, motivations, and politics from the author of Rabbit Hole. The owner of Brookhaven Care Home has been stabbed to death in his office, and DS Ursula Pembridge is called out to investigate the murder of the prominent property developer. When Owen Caulfield, campaign staffer for the local Labour MP, arrives to find his boss’s planned visit has been cancelled due to the tragedy, he decides to stay and visit his elderly father instead.

With each chapter told from a different point of view, Chains pulls us into the recent history of Britain and introduces us to adulterer and blackmailer, politician and private detective, environmentalist and killer—and reminds us that whether it’s about current events or criminal activities, we all see situations very differently . . .
