A Good Morning America Book Club Pick and a New York Times bestseller!

“A page-turner for booklovers everywhere! . . . A story of family ties, their lost dreams, and the redemption that comes from discovering truth.”—Adriana Trigiani, bestselling author of The Shoemaker's Wife

In New York Times bestselling author Fiona Davis's latest historical novel, a series of book thefts roils the iconic New York Public Library, leaving two generations of strong-willed women to pick up the pieces.


It's 1913, and on the surface, Laura Lyons couldn't ask for more out of life—her husband is the superintendent of the New York Public Library, allowing their family to live in an apartment within the grand building, and they are blessed with two children. But headstrong, passionate Laura wants more, and when she takes a leap of faith and applies to the Columbia Journalism School, her world is cracked wide open. As her studies take her all over the city, she is drawn to Greenwich Village's new bohemia, where she discovers the Heterodoxy Club—a radical, all-female group in which women are encouraged to loudly share their opinions on suffrage, birth control, and women's rights. Soon, Laura finds herself questioning her traditional role as wife and mother. And when valuable books are stolen back at the library, threatening the home and institution she loves, she's forced to confront her shifting priorities head on . . . and may just lose everything in the process.

Eighty years later, in 1993, Sadie Donovan struggles with the legacy of her grandmother, the famous essayist Laura Lyons, especially after she's wrangled her dream job as a curator at the New York Public Library. But the job quickly becomes a nightmare when rare manuscripts, notes, and books for the exhibit Sadie's running begin disappearing from the library's famous Berg Collection. Determined to save both the exhibit and her career, the typically risk-averse Sadie teams up with a private security expert to uncover the culprit. However, things unexpectedly become personal when the investigation leads Sadie to some unwelcome truths about her own family heritage—truths that shed new light on the biggest tragedy in the library's history.

This is the second book I have listened to by this author. The author is very talented at tying together two different time periods at the same location. I can’t wait to listen to more

Love it

Wonderful story, told from the grandmother’s time and her more current granddaughter’s time. And to have it set in the New York Public Library was brilliant.

Thoroughly Enjoyed

I found the book to be well written, interesting , with well defined characters. Covering 2 periods of history - 1913 and 1993 it was easy to identify the characters, who were quite believable.. There was also an element of suspense.. A Good. Read or Listen!!

An interesting plot, well written, as well as well narrated.

Fiona Davis does it again! This book was so interesting. Keeps you guessing until the end. I thought I had figured it out a few times, but I was wrong! She really explains what it was like for women in the early 20th century. Laura is a strong woman, especially for her time. Enjoyed the history about the New York public library as well. Great book!

Loved!
