Falling Angels (Unabridged ed)

Will friendship overcome the social boundaries of Edwardian London?

One cold January morning, two young sets of eyes - One pair belongs to smartly dressed Lavinia Waterhouse, whose mother clings to the traditional values she sees slipping away; the other to Maude Coleman, whose mother longs to escape the grip of Victorian society.

Thrust together by the girls' friendship, these two very different families embark on a new century that promises electricity, emancipation and other changes that will shake the very foundations of their lives.
