Fates and Traitors: A Novel of John Wilkes Booth by Jennifer Chiaverini is is not a story of suspense, for history tells us both of his actions and of the consequences of those actions. The book feels a bit long at times, but it is an engaging one. Ultimately, this book is a story of four women who love a man despite his faults and of their memories not of a traitor but of a son, a brother, and a lover.
