In 1940 the world was hurtling toward war, and in Washington, DC, the First Lady was hunting for a killer. Fine food and drink were not a hallmark of FDR's White House, but bad champagne isn't the reason Senator Vance Gibson staggered away from a state dinner. Moments after his departure the man is found dead in the East Room, his throat slit from ear to ear!
Eleanor Roosevelt can't help but investigate the murder of Senator Gibson, a man who was irresistible to women, including Greta Garbo herself. Eamining the suspects, from jealous husband to a corrupt politician, Eleanor finds herself in a steamy world of sex and secrets. But the President's wife, the most shocking truth is yet to come.
This series is great, consider it time travel, alternate history, whatever, it makes a good read.
