Sanctuary by Edith Wharton audiobook.
Genre: drama
In Edith Wharton's psychological novel Sanctuary, young Kate Orme believes she has found perfect happiness in her engagement to Denis Peyton, a charming man of wealth and position. But just as wedding plans settle into place, Kate discovers that Denis has been hiding a devastating truth about his past, and the revelation forces her to weigh love against conscience in a world where reputation and family honor carry enormous weight. After marriage and the birth of their son, Kate's private fears deepen into an obsession: she becomes convinced that moral weakness can be inherited, and that Denis' flaws may live on in their child. Determined to build a refuge of character and restraint, she devotes herself to shaping her son's future, even as the pressures of society and the ambiguities of human motive erode any simple sense of right and wrong. Years later, when her now-adult son comes to her with a crisis that tests everything she has tried to protect, Kate must confront the cost of her own idea of sanctuary, and the uneasy boundary between guidance and control.
