From the Back Cover

Portia and Emily meet to launch their daughters on an unsuspecting Society for the London Season of 1913. Both are determined that their offspring, Phyllis and Edith, will catch the eye of their friend May's son, a future Duke. If that were all, the Season would be a relatively simple affair, but since Portia is recently widowed and Emily is away from her husband, life is bound to get more interesting.

Meanwhile, their arch-enemy Daisy Lanford, fallen on hard times due to extravagance and too many lovers, is busy launching American heiresses. However, her protégée, Sarah Hartley Lambert, whilst an engaging girl, is not the wild success Daisy had hoped she would be. This is largely due to the machinations of Phyllis, who, having formed an unholy alliance with Edith, is intent on spoiling the American girl's chances.

As always, the Season is fraught with dangers for both the young and the middle-aged, while the old observe, knowing it has all gone on before. It will be a minor miracle if all three girls find husbands before the end of the Season, and their mothers, not to mention Daisy Lanford, renewed happiness. --This text refers to the Paperback edition.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not a book for your holidays!, 29 April 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: The Season (Paperback)
I found this book quite hard-going. Usually I read books very quickly but this book did not capture my imagination. The beginning is very slow so you are more likely to put it down for a few weeks rather than staying up all night to finish it. The characters are hard to relate to and frankly I found it boring. I have read quite a few of Charlotte Bingham's books and enjoyed them but this one I would not recommend.

4.0 out of 5 stars A good read!!, 16 May 2006
This review is from: The Season (Paperback)
I have read most of Charlotte Binghams books and this book has lived up to my high expectations. Charlotte Bingham is such an amazing author, with the characters in this book seeming so incredibly real. It has a fantastic storyline and your heart reaches out to the characters as they experience the London Society in 1913. A very good read!
