England, 1794. Now in her thirties, Lady Henrietta Bessborough is no stranger to the affections of a younger man. For married women of the Ton, a young lover is encouraged, provided you know how to play the game : don't embarrass your husband and maintain complete discretion at all times. A beautifully evocative historical novel inspired by a real-life 18th-century love affair.

There, and later at Channel Four, she played an important role in popularizing history on TV, making a number of highly regarded series, including Simon Schama’s History of Britain.
She went on to run two of the BBC’s major television channels, first as Controller of BBC 4 and then BBC 2, and she commissioned hits across a wide range of genres, from Great British Bake Off to the dramas Wolf Hall and Line of Duty. She was the recipient of a number of awards, and is a Fellow of the Royal Television Society, as well as of King’s College, University of London.
The Other Bennet Sister is her first novel although she has previously written one non fiction book, The Strangest Family, which told the story of the troubled relationship between George III and his wife and children.

She currently lives in Edinburgh with her husband and has two sons.
