About this audiobook
Lady Audley is universally adored: beautiful, kind and charming, she enamors all whom she meets. It is not until the strange disappearance of widower George Talboys that her behavior takes an odd turn. George’s friend Robert Audley, Lady Audley’s nephew-in-law, is on the case; upper-class layabout-turned-detective, he is determined to get to the bottom of things. Mystery, mayhem, madness and despair: Lady Audley’s Secret is the gripping and suspenseful novel that has been branded ‘the most sensationally successful of all the sensation novels’.
