Summary

1926, Hyde Park, New York. Born to modest means but befriended by the wealthy, aspiring dress designer Pandora Carmichael has been surrounded by privilege yet never at home in it. That hasn't stopped her from dreaming of a romance in a rarified world that could also give her the status and resources to start a business of her own. When she's introduced to a charismatic Princeton student, Pandora's future begins to fall into place. Marriage provides Pandora with a devoted husband, comfortable love, and the prominence and affluence to open a boutique. It's a fantasy realised, until scandal and tragedy upend Pandora's life and she flees Hyde Park with a heart-wrenching secret. As the Depression looms, Pandora must rethink everything she's ever wanted
