After a separation of many years, Emily 'Fido' Faithfull bumps into
her old friend Helen Codrington on the streets of Victorian London.
Much has changed: Helen is more and more unhappy in her marriage to
the older Vice-Admiral Codrington, while Fido has become a
successful woman of business and a pioneer in the British Women's
Movement. But, for all her independence of mind, Fido is too
trusting of her once-dear companion and finds herself drawn into
aiding Helen's obsessive affair with a young army officer. When the
Vice-Admiral seizes the children and sues for divorce, the women's
friendship unravels amid accusations of adultery and
counter-accusations of cruelty and attempted rape, as well as a
mysterious 'sealed letter' that could destroy more than one life
...Based on blow-by-blow newspaper reports of the 1864 Codrington
Divorce, THE SEALED LETTER, full of sparkling characters and wicked
dialogue, is a thought-provoking mystery and gripping drama of
friends, lovers and marriage.
