A novel about the real life secret affair between the First Lady of the United States, Eleanor Roosevelt and celebrated journalist Lorena Hickock. Told from Lorena’s point-of-view, the book tells of the illicit decades-long affair between the two women, as well as exploring her unique position within the White House, to see all the secret machinations of government. The book also flashes back to Hickok’s dirt-poor upbringing, providing a stark contrast to the power and glamour of Washington. A fascinating novel that shines light on a little known true story.
