About this listen

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.

Editorial reviews

Iconic and best-selling British author Penny Vincenzi delivers a tremendous feat of storytelling in her latest release novel A Perfect Heritage, which has been narrated in this audiobook edition by Sandra Duncan. The House of Farrell have been a huge family name in cosmetics for decades. It’s only when modern technologies changing the face of cosmetics production that the House truly feared for its survival for the first time. Perhaps it will take the unraveling of family secrets and one very strong-willed new employee to bring the company and its family members back from the brink. Available now from Audible.

Brilliant Narration

This is an engaging story filled with an interesting variety of characters.
The clever narrator makes each voice distinctive and original, with her talented display of nuance, timing and metre.
This is an audiobook to take you away from your own world and spirit you into the intrigues of another.

Highly Entertaining

Compelling story, great narration, interesting characters. Although quite predictable, it somehow succeeded in being very engaging. Not a deep read, but a nice long one, with everything neatly tied up with a bow in the end.
