Description

A mysterious shoebox in a grand Georgian home sets off a chain of events that leads to a surprising discovery about one woman's past. Cate, a gifted young artist, is sent to Endsleigh to value its contents, but instead finds an exquisite pair of silk dancing shoes and a collection of objects that lead her on a journey to uncover the story of Baby Blythe, a famous debutante from the 1930s. As she delves deeper into the mystery, Cate begins to unravel secrets about her own life. The clues in the shoebox reveal a tale of dark love and addiction, but also lead Cate to confront her own painful past. With its intricate plot and atmospheric setting, this novel is a gripping exploration of identity, family, and the power of the past to shape our present. Cate's journey takes her from the streets of New York to the English countryside, where she must navigate a complex web of relationships and secrets in order to uncover the truth.
