She tasted power and passion in the world's highest office against the backdrop of the Great Depression and World War Two.
Robbed of her home and job by the Great Depression, the future looks bleak for Iris McIntosh - until a chance encounter with America's indefatigable First Lady, Eleanor Roosevelt. Propelled into the White House's brilliant inner circle, Iris finds herself at the centre of momentous change ... and her heart torn between two men. But her loyalty lies with a third: the complicated and charismatic President Roosevelt, who will ultimately force her to question everything she believes in.
A compelling story of politics and power, love and loss, set in one of the most exciting and cataclysmic periods of history.
