Behind a Mask, or a Woman's Power by Louisa May Alcott ~ Full Audiobook [mystery]

Behind a Mask, or a Woman's Power by Louisa May Alcott audiobook. Genre: mystery In a respectable English country house, the well-to-do Coventry family believes they have hired a quiet, capable governess to guide their youngest daughter. But Jean Muir arrives with more than lesson plans. Plainly dressed and seemingly modest, she quickly learns the household's habits and weak points, studying the rhythms of drawing rooms, garden walks, and late-night conversations with a keen eye for opportunity. As the proud matriarch and her strong-willed adult children size her up, Jean begins to reshape how each of them sees her - and how they see one another. A stray remark becomes leverage, a look becomes a promise, and a reputation becomes a tool. When private writings and hidden encounters hint at a carefully maintained secret life, the Coventrys realize that their new governess may be the most dangerous person under their roof. Behind a Mask, or a Woman's Power is a fast, sly tale of performance and deception, where love and ambition collide and a woman with few conventional choices tests how far intelligence, charm, and sheer will can bend a rigid society.
