When Navy ensign Billy Grenville, heir to a vast New York fortune, sees showgirl Ann Arden on the dance floor, it is love at first sight. And much to the horror of Alice Grenville--the indomitable family matriarch--he marries her. Ann wants desperately to be accepted by high society and become the well-bred woman of her fantasies. But a gunshot one rainy night propels Ann into a notorious spotlight--as the two Mrs. Grenvilles enter into a conspiracy of silence that will bind them together for as long as they live. . . . From the Paperback edition.

Three books my IRL friend Greta recommended to me. I read them all in 1993 I think. Greta and I don‘t always have the same taste in books, but these three were winners for me. 😀

Pickpick

This novel, based heavily on the real-life case (which I googled a lot while reading) in the 1950s of former showgirl killing her super-rich husband Billy Woodward, was a fairly good diversion. Full of rich people problems. A pick because it was a page-turner for me. Letter D for #LitsyAtoZ

RadicalReader @ValerieAndBooks surprised when I figured out that the Litsy A to Z related to the authors not the titles of books 8y
