''The Manual For Good Wives, a fast-paced tale of courage and resilience is beautifully written and remarkably moving. An absolute masterpiece'' - Mike Gayle, author of All the Lonely People

Everything about Adeline Copplefield is a lie . . .


To the world Mrs Copplefield is the epitome of Victorian propriety: an exemplary society lady who writes a weekly column advising young ladies on how to be better wives.

Only Adeline has never been a good wife or mother; she has no claim to the Copplefield name, nor is she an English lady . . .

Now a black woman, born in Africa, who dared to pretend to be something she was not, is on trial in the English courts with all of London society baying for her blood. And she is ready to tell her story . . .

From the author of The Attic Child, Lola Jaye, comes a powerful dual narrative historical novel. The Manual for Good Wives is about love, generational trauma, second chances and hope.

''An unforgettable voice within a breathtaking story about love, lineage, and the intergenerational effect of bravery in the face of misfortune'' - Jessica George, author of Diverse Book Awards winning My Name is Maame

''Poignant, captivating and thoroughly enjoyable'' - The Yorkshire Times
