White Gloves by author Karen Warfield is an historical fiction piece with themes of mystery, intrigue, deception, and redemption throughout. Edwina Wojneck, a poor girl living with her family in a small house, always felt there was more to life than washing clothes and being belittled by her Mummy. Her beautiful and glamorous Aunt Vi gives her a taste of the finer things in life before Edwina is whisked off to a new station - a maid in Rochurst Manor. The staff there shares with her the strange and disturbing past of Master Rochurst, and the tragic present circumstances of the ladies of the house. Edwina discovers more than she bargained for in this rich and captivating story, both about herself and the family Rochurst.
