Summary
In 1934 Idina Sackville met the son she had last seen fifteen years earlier, when she shocked high society by running off to Africa with a near-penniless man, abandoning her son, his brother and their father. So scandalous was Idina's… life - she was said to have had 'lovers without number' - that it was kept a secret from her great-granddaughter, Frances Osbourne. Now Frances explores her tale of betrayal and heartbreak. 2009, c2008.
