    Summary: 
    After the Ninth Duke of Rutland, one of the wealthiest men in Britain, died alone in the Rutland family archives in Belvoir Castle on April 21, 1940, his son and heir ordered the room sealed. Sixty years later, Catherine Bailey became the first historian given access. She discovered a mystery: The Duke had painstakingly erased three periods of his life from all family records -- but why? As Bailey uncovers the answers, she provides an intimate portrait of the very top of British society in the turbulent days leading up to World War I.
