My book has a different cover than the one shown on PBS. "Adopted as a child, Philippa Palfrey had the best of everything. But at eighteen she wanted more; the identity of her real parents. Having always fantasized that she was the illegitimate daughter of an aristocrat and a parlor maid, she wasn't prepared for the shocking truth. And she was even less equipped to meet her mother..and rekindle ties that would trigger an event more terrifying than either of them could have imagined." A cunningly plotted story..P.D. James remains the best there is.
