Plot Summary:
New York City, 1900.
In high society nothing is more dangerous than a scandal. Two months have passed since the esteemed Holland family's shocking fall from grace and those watching the impetuous Miss Diana Holland are beginning to whisper again.
Further uptown, notorious cad Henry Shoonmaker and his new bride are the city's most celebrated couple. But the glittering diamond she wears hasn't yet brought her all she desires.
Manhattan's most envied residents appear to have everything, wealth, beauty, happiness.
But in a city ruined by reputation, sometimes the most practised smiles hide the most scandalous secrets...
