Damian Baxter is hugely wealthy and dying. He lives alone in a big house in Surrey, England, looked after by a chauffeur, butler, cook, and housemaid. He has but one concern—his fortune in excess of five hundred million and who should inherit it on his death. Past Imperfect is the story of a quest. Damian Baxter wishes to know if he has a living heir. By the time he married in his late thirties he was sterile (the result of adult mumps), but what about before that unfortunate illness? Had he sired a child? He sets himself (and others) to the task of finding his heir.

The Emmy Award–winning creator of Downton Abbey and New York Times bestselling author of Belgravia and Snobs delivers an “intriguing” historical novel (Publishers Weekly)!

To fulfill an old enemy’s dying wish, a man seeks out the child he never knew he had. “It’s like a visit to an English country estate: breezy, beautiful, and charming” (The New York Times Book Review).
