Summary
A family. A firm. A lifetime of secrets. The irresistible new novel from the No 1 bestselling Penny Vincenzi. The Original and The Best.
The House of Farrell - home of The Cream, an iconic face product that has seen women flocking to its bijoux flagship store in the Berkeley Arcade since 1953.
At Farrell, you can rely on the personal touch. The legendary Athina Farrell remains the company's figurehead and in her kingdom at the Berkeley Arcade, Florence Hamilton plies their cosmetics with the utmost discretion. She is sales advisor - and holder of secrets - extraordinaire. But of course the world of cosmetics is changing and the once glorious House of Farrell is now in decline, its customers tempted away by more fashionable brands.
Enter Bianca Bailey, formidable business woman, mother of three, and someone who always gets her way. Athina and Bianca lock horns over the future of the House of Farrell but it is the past that tells its devastating tale of ambition and ego, passion and wonder.
Here is a tale of survival...and a kind of promise.

Swept into the world of cosmetics with an easy listen and story. It made sewing and painting time pass quickly.

Usual Penny Vincenzi Brilliance.
Where does A Perfect Heritage rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
Penny Vincenzi never fails to capture, and hold, my attention from first page to last. Her writing is superb and crafting of her characters enchanting.
Have you listened to any of Sandra Duncan’s other performances? How does this one compare?
Sandra Duncan is an excellent narrator. She speaks with clarity and precision, neatly bringing every character in the book to life.

ohh I love Penny Vincenzi
Once again Ms V had me captured for the several hours it took to complete this book. She is a fantastic story teller and always ties up the character plots to great satisfaction. I was sad when I finished it. Thoroughly recommended,[probably for women rather than men]

Gripping second half
The book was very long so kept me entertained for a very long time. I found it increasingly gripping after a fairly slow start. I couldn't put it down for the final ten chapters and listened instead of watching TV or listening to my favourite programmes on the radio!

Excellent .... 5*s
As with all the Penny Vincenzi books I have read I couldn't put it down so to speak !
Lovely characters especially dear Florence, you can imagine her as a sweet dear Grandma'
Athena certainly was a woman not to cross, one of the old school and Bianca really did need the patience of a saint !
I thoroughly enjoyed the story line from start to finish and if your a fan I'm sure you will too.

A GREAT LONG LISTEN!
What a captivating story, brilliantly narrated. If, like me, you love to listen while you do the boring housework you won't be sorry with this, in fact I listened rather than watch the television. Highly recommended.
