A bit disappointed in this book.  It is book number 3 in a series loosely based on the lives of the Guinness Girls in the 1920’s/1930’s.  I was really taken with the first book, but felt the second one wasn’t as good and this is similar. I’m happy to have read it, but wouldn’t recommend it unless you’ve read the other two.  If you read anything set in London upper classes in the 1930’s, you’ll be full of the Wallis Simpson obsession.
