About this listen

As well as telling the story of Caroline and Philippa, this book continues the tale of Harriet, which began in The Eccentric’s Tale.

Now in her late 40s, Harriet is so staggeringly rich and powerful that she fears no one. Along with her sister, she settles down to enjoy her freedom and to live the eccentric life she has always desired, estranged from her disapproving family. An unexpected visit from a family member brings the neglected, timid Philippa into her life, and Harriet makes an impulsive decision which turns both her world and Philippa’s upside down.

Meanwhile, Caroline, who is enjoying a normal life as the eldest daughter of a wealthy duke, discovers by chance that she has an aunt who no one will talk about. At all. Thwarted in her attempts to discover more about her intriguing relative, Caroline takes a daring step to solve the mystery, unwittingly setting in motion a chain of events that will irrevocably change not only her life, but the lives of those around her.

The Ladies Tale

A great read. Keeps you wanting to read , but don’t want them to end. Great book as usual. Harriet’s advice, actions etc. such a fun formidable character. Excellent, must read.

Really loved some more insight

I really enjoyed some more insight into these characters. I do think that the title is just a little bit misleading: the story is primarily that of Caroline and Edwin (which I don’t mind per say, it’s just not as much of Philippa’s tale as I was expecting). Harriet continues to be awesome and I did love seeing Caroline grow into the woman of the main series. Edwin is.. a bit different here than in the main story line and I find myself preferring the younger version of the man. Still, one does expect some changes across the stories. I also really enjoyed learning more about Hightower and even Daniel.

The narration continues to be excellent - really, both Wells and Watt continue to make the various characters’ voices clear and distinct. Truly excellent (though the recording is sometimes a bit off).

Overall, I really enjoyed the story, just as I have the others!

Delightful to listen to.

The two readers bring the individual characters to life with great clarity. Listening to the story was enjoyable.

Just lovely

I didn't enjoy the first Harriet book but this book more than makes up for the first. Superb narration.
