1935, Hedoné House, a luxurious sanatorium for the creative elite
dedicated to the groundbreaking treatment of tuberculosis. As the
doctor’s new wife, Agnes Templeton has pledged her life to a house of
fever.
But Hedoné is no ordinary hospital. High society rubs shoulders with
artists, poets and musicians. No expense is spared on the comfort of
the guests, and champagne flows freely. It’s a world away from
everything Agnes knows.
Her husband’s methods are unusual. There are whisperings about past
patients and even a cure. Hedoné’s secrets draw Agnes in, revealing
truths she could never anticipate, and soon she is caught between a
past she is desperate to escape and a future she may forever regret.
