W. Gortner tells the epic rags-to-riches story of how this brilliant, mercurial, self-created woman became a legend.”—CHRISTINA BAKER KLINE, New York Times bestselling author of Orphan Train“Well-written and historically accurate. . . . An homage to a couture icon whose influence is still powerful today.”—Kirkus Reviews“Sucked me in by the pearls and never let go. Gortner’s imagining of the ultimate fashion icon is equal parts grit and glamour, painting a portrait of a woman who was hugely inspiring but by no means perfect. Oh, and if you can’t afford to visit Paris in peak springtime season, reading this book with a glass of wine is a decent substitute.”—Glamour“Enticing. . . . Well-researched and well-crafted historical novel that leaves the reader satisfied on many levels.”—New York Journal of Books“Gortner brings to life a woman who was as alluring and captivating as her signature scent.”—RT Book ReviewsAbout the Author C. W. Gortner is the author of many bestselling historical novels—including Mademoiselle Chanel—which have been published in more than twenty countries. He lives in San Francisco.
