Sobre IBD

Set in the upper tiers of New York society, this novel follows a woman struggling to shield her children and maintain social standing as her husband’s financial irresponsibility pulls them toward ruin. Torn between honesty and the pressures of propriety, she manipulates appearances while navigating a world where a single scandal could destroy everything. As her family teeters on the edge, she is forced to reckon with the limits of sacrifice, pride, and the role society demands she play. This is a portrait of a woman’s quiet desperation amid wealth, gossip, and social expectation.
