Join us when author Marie Benedict visits to discuss her latest novel, The Mitford Affair.
About the author:
Marie Benedict is the New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of Her Hidden Genius, The Mystery of Mrs. Christie, The Only Woman in the Room, Lady Clementine, Carnegie's Maid, and The Other Einstein. All have been translated into multiple languages. She lives in Pittsburgh with her family.
In her latest historical novel, The Mitford Affair, between the World Wars, the six Mitford sisters -- each more beautiful, brilliant, and eccentric than the next -- dominate the English political, literary, and social scenes. Though they've weathered scandals before, the family falls into disarray when Diana divorces her wealthy husband to marry a fascist leader and Unity follows her sister's lead all the way to Munich, inciting rumors that she's become Hitler's mistress.
As the Nazis rise in power, novelist Nancy Mitford grows suspicious of her sisters' constant visits to Germany and the high-ranking fascist company they keep. When she overhears alarming conversations and uncovers disquieting documents, Nancy must make excruciating choices as Great Britain goes to war with Germany.
