That Churchill woman : a novel
(Book)

Includes a reader's guide, ©2020.

Agreeing to marry Randolph Churchill, the son of a duke she has known only three days, New Yorker Jennie Jerome was swept up in a whirlwind of British politics and the breathless social climbing of the Marlborough House Set, the reckless men who surround Bertie, Prince of Wales. Lady Randolph Churchill quickly became a London sensation: adored by some, despised by others. Artistically gifted and politically shrewd, she shaped her husband's rise in Parliament and her young son's difficult passage through boyhood. As scandals explode and tragedy befalls the Churchills. Jennie is drawn to Count Charles Kinsky-- diplomat, skilled horse-racer, deeply passionate lover. But as Randolph's sanity frays, Jennie must walk a tightrope between duty and desire. -- adapted from publisher info
