Good book reminiscent of Downton Abbey. There are many secrets at Riverton both among the family and the staff below stairs. The story is told by a former housemaid now in her 90s. Dramatic events build until the culmination at a garden party in 1924 with a disastrous and notorious death. Foreshadowing keeps drawing you onward as the story drags a bit at times.
