In nineteenth-century France, under the Second Empire, the Vaneycks, wealthy spinners from Lille, see their respectability waver.

The novel was originally published in 2004; this Pocket edition is from 2006.
For those looking for family sagas and historical novels with clan conflicts and social background.
