A double biographical portrait of Alice Keppel, mistress of Edward VII and her daughter Violet Trefusis, whose ten-year liaison with Vita Sackville-West risked their joint exposure, disgrace and expulsion from late Edwardian society. But the book is also about the tense and often tempestuous relationship between the disapproving mother and the wilful daughter, a relationship which went to the heart of questions about moral hypocrisy, sexual freedom and what today would be called 'family values'. (Kirkus UK)
Alice Keppel was a manipulative woman, whose relationship with Edward VII placed her at the centre of high society. Her daughter, Violet, was fascinated with her mother's power. Yet when she fell in love with Vita Sackville-West, she threatened to break all the moral rules of her mothers world.
