large type - 2022

"2019: Andie Figuero has just landed her dream job as a producer on Makeover Mansion, a popular reality show about restoring America's most lavish historical houses. Andie's latest project features the once glorious but now crumbling Sprague Hall in Newport ... But the mansion's reclusive owner, Lucia 'Lucky' Sprague, will only allow the show to go forward on two conditions: One, nobody speaks to her. Two, nobody touches the mansion's ruined boathouse. 1899: Ellen Daniels has been hired to give singing lessons to Miss Maybelle Sprague, a naive young Colorado mining heiress whose stepbrother, John, has poured their new money into buying a place among Newport's elite. John is determined to see Maybelle married off to a fortune-hunting Italian prince, and Ellen is supposed to polish up the girl ... But demure Ellen has her own scandalous past, which catches up to her in one catastrophic night... 1957: In the years since Lucky Sprague and her grandmother--the American-born Princess di Conti--fled Mussolini's Italy and returned to Sprague Hall, Lucky's lost her Italian accent and found a place for herself among the yachting set by marrying Stuyvesant Sprague, the alcoholic scion of her Sprague stepfamily. But an encounter in the mansion's old boathouse will uncover a devastating truth..."--
