About this audiobook
Lady Audley's Secret is a Victorian novel which includes all decisive elements to keep you in suspense - murder, arson, blackmail, bigamy and a forbidden romance . The story is fast-paced and the main character, Lady Audley, is a refreshingly scheming and resourceful villainess filled with passion and needs that threatened the male dominated Victorian era.
Mary Elizabeth Braddon
Mary Elizabeth Braddon (1835–1915) was an English novelist and actress during the Victorian era. Although raised by a single mother, Braddon was educated at private institutions where she honed her creative skills. As a young woman, she worked as a theater actress to support herself and her family. When interest faded, she shifted to writing and produced her most notable work Lady Audley's Secret. It was one of more than 80 novels Braddon wrote of the course of an expansive career.
