To the Manor Born

The Brigandshaw Chronicles, Book 4

De: Peter Rimmer

Narrado por: Alex Bhat

A paradise gained. A friendship tested. A betrayal waiting to happen.

In the glittering aftermath of the Great War, Ralph Madgwick and Keppel Howland have fled the disillusionment of post-war England for the wild promise of Southern Rhodesia. Their quest for fortune in the African bush has yielded nothing but dust and disappointment—until a chance encounter changes everything…

When the legendary flying ace Harry Brigandshaw spots their campfire from his biplane and invites them to his sprawling estate, Elephant Walk, the two friends find themselves thrust into a world of colonial wealth, power, and dangerous temptation. As they settle into the rhythms of farm life, Ralph notices the unmistakable tension between their charismatic host and his beautiful young wife, Tina—a woman whose bedroom eyes and restless spirit spell trouble.

Against the backdrop of 1923 Rhodesia, where the scars of war still linger and the seeds of future conflict are being sown, Ralph must navigate his own desires while protecting his naïve friend from a brewing love triangle that threatens to destroy them all. In this lush, complex world where duty collides with passion and loyalty with ambition, everyone at Elephant Walk harbours secrets that, once revealed, may tear apart the delicate balance of their colonial paradise forever.

To the Manor Born, the fourth in the Brigandshaw Chronicles, is a sweeping tale of lost innocence, forbidden desire, and the price paid for dreams deferred—where the breathtaking beauty of Africa serves as both witness and judge to the follies of human hearts.

loved it!

Why this author isn't on best sell3r lists is a mystery. His stories are so rich with variety and intrigue. The historical research is flawless. I recommend this series 100%.

Great series.

I love long family sagas & this one is VERY long. I almost didn’t read book 2 but the story has gotten better.

Slow start

Sometimes it’s hard to keep up with all the characters involved but eventually they coalesce and make sense to the story.

Excellent series

I love the depth of character and storyline and the intricate woven lives of characters.

The saga has me hooked. Onto book 5.

The story of Harry and all the characters is very interesting. Looking forward to book 5
