Description
A Perfect Heritage by Penny Vincenzi is a family and business drama centred on the House of Farrell, a prestigious cosmetics company whose flagship product, The Cream, has attracted loyal customers to its Berkeley Arcade store since 1953. But changing tastes and competition from fashionable new brands have left the once-glamorous business in decline.
At the heart of Farrell is the formidable Athina Farrell, still the company’s figurehead, and Florence Hamilton, a discreet sales adviser who has become the keeper of many secrets. When ambitious businesswoman Bianca Bailey takes an interest in the future of the House of Farrell, she and Athina clash over its direction. As the company’s past is revealed, questions of ambition, ego, passion and survival come to the fore.
A good choice for readers who enjoy family dramas, business stories, secrets, strong female characters and sweeping novels about ambition, relationships and changing times.
