It is the latest book by
New York Times best-selling author Heather Terrell (writing as Marie Benedict) who has written many untold stories of prominent women in history.

Terrell said her parents were supportive but surprised when she told them she wanted to go from being a lawyer to an author.
She described the career change as a leap of faith .
