Specificatii
In Depression-era Boston, a city divided by privilege and poverty,
two unlikely friends are bound by a dangerous secret in this
mesmerizing work of historical fiction from the New York Times
bestselling author of The Perfume Collector.Maeve Fanning is a
first generation Irish immigrant, born and raised among the poor,
industrious Italian families of Boston's North End by her widowed
mother. Clever, capable, and as headstrong as her red hair
suggests, she's determined to better herself despite the
overwhelming hardships of the Great Depression.However, Maeve also
has a dangerous fondness for strange men and bootleg gin--a
rebellious appetite that soon finds her spiraling downward, leading
a double life. When the strain proves too much, Maeve becomes an
unwilling patient in a psychiatric hospital, where she strikes up a
friendship with an enigmatic young woman, who, like Maeve, is
unable or unwilling to control her un-lady-like desire for
freedom.Once out, Maeve faces starting over again. Armed with a
bottle of bleach and a few white lies, she lands a job at an
eccentric antiques shop catering to Boston's wealthiest and most
peculiar collectors. Run by an elusive English archeologist, the
shop is a haven of the obscure and incredible, providing rare
artifacts as well as unique access to the world of America's social
elite. While delivering a purchase to the wealthy Van der Laar
family, Maeve is introduced to beautiful socialite Diana Van der
Laar--only to discover she's the young woman from the
hospital.Reunited with the charming but increasingly unstable Diana
and pursued by her attractive brother James, Mae becomes more and
more entwined with the Van der Laar family--a connection that pulls
her into a world of moral ambiguity and deceit, and ultimately
betrayal. Bewitched by their wealth and desperate to leave her past
behind, Maeve is forced to unearth her true values and discover how
far she'll to go to reinvent herself.
