Fates and Traitors: A Novel of John Wilkes Booth and the Women Who Loved Him
Description
The New York Times bestselling author of Mrs. Lincoln’s Dressmaker and Canary
Girls returns with a riveting work of historical fiction following the
notorious John Wilkes Booth and the four women who kept his perilous
confidence. John Wilkes Booth, the mercurial son of an acclaimed British stage
actor and a Covent Garden flower girl, committed one of the most notorious
acts in American history—the assassination of President Abraham Lincoln. The
subject of more than a century of scholarship, speculation, and even
obsession, Booth is often portrayed as a shadowy figure, a violent loner whose
single murderous act made him the most hated man in America. Lost to history
until now is the story of the four women whom he loved and who loved him in
return: Mary Ann, the steadfast matriarch of the Booth family; Asia, his loyal
sister and confidante; Lucy Lambert Hale, the senator’s daughter who adored
Booth yet tragically misunderstood the intensity of his wrath; and Mary
Surratt, the Confederate widow entrusted with the secrets of his vengeful
plot. Fates and Traitors brings to life pivotal actors—some willing, others
unwitting—who made an indelible mark on the history of our nation. Chiaverini
portrays not just a soul in turmoil but a country at the precipice of immense
change. Read more
