Описание: CAN THE FIRST LADY SAVE AN INNOCENT WOMANS LIFE?Eleanor Roosevelt was a tremendous advocate for victims of misjustice, but she may have met her match in Jim Crow Georgia. A black woman sits on death row awaiting her date with the electric chair for a crime she didnt commit. Even with the help of the Presidents secretary, Marguerite LeHand, and FBI agent Corey Wainwright, the First Lady battles racial prejudice and the ticking of the executioners clock. Devious Hollywood reporter Joan Roswell and glamorous starlet Ida Lupino round out the cast in this fast-paced story, set in Warm Springs, Georgia, home of FDRs beloved Little White House.Kelly Durham, author of eight thrillers set against the backdrops of World War II and the Golden Age of Hollywood, and Kathryn Smith, author of Missy LeHands biography THE GATEKEEPER, deliver again in the third Missy LeHand Mystery.The series-defining Hollywood-Washington connection is now established. Add in Missys assistant Grace Tully and handsome FBI agent Corey Wainwright and the whole gang is back together, taking readers on another vivid and engaging visit to the 1930s, this time focusing on the Jim Crow South. Gone with the Wind author Margaret Mitchell provides the episodes celebrity cameo appearance...Despite the seriousness in theme, the breezy prose is filled with humorous interludes, and the portrait of an indefatigable and earnest Mrs. Roosevelt is delightful. An enjoyable ensemble cast skillfully beefs up an uncomplicated crime plot; a quick, fun read with unsavory secondary characters and salient historical tidbits. -- Kirkus Reviews
