Book description
The first in a multi-generational trilogy by mega-seller Penny Jordan
is set in the decadent world of the silk industry.
Dangerous liaisons…
Skeletons in closets…
A scandalous web of lies and deceit…
The Pickfords are just your average family.
1920s Cheshire. A time of great glamour and decadence, high living and
loose morality. A time where anything goes - and does.
Amber Vrontsky is the heiress to the wealthy Pickford dynasty, presided
over by the formidable Blanche.
Obsessed with social climbing, Blanche wants nothing more for her
granddaughter than a titled husband - a prize which she herself failed
to secure, despite her immense wealth.
But free spirited Amber is intent on forging her own artistic career
with the silk she loves so much. Unable to disobey Blanche, however, she
moves to society London to become a debutante - and enters a world of
illicit affairs, drug-taking, gambling, lavender marriages…
From the lavish decadence of society London to the opium dens of the
Far East, the chic boutiques of Paris to the Nazi-controlled streets of
Berlin, Silk spans the depravity and the glamour of this tumultuous time.
Spoil yourself with this dazzling, decadent treat by international
multi-million-copy selling Penny Jordan - the ultimate read for fans of
Danielle Steel and Penny Vincenzi. 'The author has created a gripping,
sexy storyline that will strike a chord with all free-willed girls who
are chasing their dreams.'
