Summary "Miss Maitland, Private Secretary" by Geraldine Bonner is a fictional novel written in the early 20th century. The narrative revolves around the lives of the Prices and Janneys, two affluent families in Long Island, as they negotiate relationships, marital strife, and a burgeoning scandal. The main characters include Suzanne Price, who is dealing with a tumultuous marriage and the repercussions of her actions, and Esther Maitland, the social secretary caught in the web of intrigue surrounding them. At the start of the novel, we witness key events unfolding at Grasslands, the opulent home of the Janneys, as Chapman Price prepares to leave his wife Suzanne. The tension is palpable as family dynamics are strained and the specter of divorce looms. As the characters interact during the heart-wrenching departure, we gain insight into their personalities and emotions. The opening segment hints at deeper issues, such as Suzanne’s financial troubles and potential moral decay, setting the stage for conflicts that may ensue as the plot progresses. It also introduces a world of societal expectations and personal battles amidst the backdrop of wealth and luxury. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
