Every character in this dazzlingly immersive novel is expertly drawn and fascinating to watch. Plus, interwoven with the chronicle of Marian's adventures, adversities, and lovers is the story of Hadley Baxter, a modern-day actress (in the midst of one of the many rocky periods of her life) chosen to play Marian Graves in the intrepid pilot's Hollywood biopic. Buckle up for this one!
