About the Book

ARE THE RUSSIANS INFLUENCING THE ELECTION? It's January 1936, and Hollywood star Ginger Rogers arrives in Washington for the annual President's Birthday Ball, a fundraiser for the polio patients at Warm Springs, Georgia. When the security detail goes missing after the ball, Ginger joins the President's secretary, Missy LeHand, to deposit more than $20,000 raised at the ball, but they are hijacked on the way to the bank. Who took the money? Was it a common criminal, or is someone trying to embarrass FDR as he faces re-election? Or could it be something more insidious? Missy, FBI Agent Corey Wainwright, and that bad-girl reporter Joan Roswell join forces to crack this complex case. Kelly Durham, author of eight thrillers set against the backdrops of World War II and the Golden Age of Hollywood, and Kathryn Smith, author of Missy LeHand's biography THE GATEKEEPER, team up again in the second Missy LeHand Mystery.
About the Author: Kelly Durham and Kathryn Smith attended D.W. Daniel High School near Clemson, South Carolina together, but didn't become friends until more than forty years later when Kathryn began editing some of Kelly's novels. This is their second collaboration. Kelly lives in Clemson with his wife, Yvonne. They are the parents of Mary Kate, Addison and Callie, and also provide for their dog, George Marshall. A graduate of Clemson University, Kelly served four years in the U.S. Army with assignments in Arizona and Germany before returning to Clemson and entering private business. Kelly is also the author of THE WAR WIDOW, BERLIN CALLING, WADE'S WAR, THE RELUCTANT COPILOT, THE MOVIE STAR AND ME, HOLLYWOOD STARLET, TEMPORARY ALLIANCE and UNFORESEEN COMPLICATIONS. Visit his website, www.kellydurham.com, or contact him at kelly@kellydurham.com. Kathryn lives in Anderson, South Carolina with her husband, Leo. They are the parents of two grown children and the grandparents of four small children. A graduate of the University of Georgia, Kathryn worked as a daily newspaper reporter and editor before entering nonprofit management work in Anderson. She is the author of the only biography of Marguerite LeHand, THE GATEKEEPER: MISSY LEHAND, FDR, AND THE UNTOLD STORY OF THE PARTNERSHIP THAT DEFINED A PRESIDENCY (Touchstone, 2016) as well as A NECESSARY WAR, a collection of interviews with World War II veterans. Kathryn speaks widely on Missy LeHand, sometimes impersonating her in period costume. Visit her website, www.kathrynsmithwords.com, and the Missy LeHand page on Facebook.
