About this audiobook

Everybody Has Secrets

“I am now about to enter on my normal condition. For people are almost always in their graves. When we survey the long race of men, it is strange and still more strange to find that they are mainly dead men, who have scarcely ever been otherwise.” - Thomas Hardy, Desperate Remedies

Cytherea Graye is left penniless with her younger brother, Owen after her father died in a terrible accident so she must look for work. He becomes the lady’s maid to Mrs. Aldclyffe and falls in love with the wrong person, Edward Springrove. She finds out Edward’s secret and decides to marry Aeneas Manston instead, Mrs. Aldclyffe’s steward. However, she soon learns Aeneas has a dark secret too.
