LONGLISTED BEST BOOK HISTORICAL FICTION COMPANY

'Daisy Chain was well researched and informative and I could hear the voice of Daisy as I was reading it.' Eimear Lawlor, author of Dublin's Girl

'A revelation. Justine Gilbert is a master storyteller. Highly recommended.' Historical Fiction Company 5-Star Award

'Justine Gilbert shines new light on the tender side of one of America's legendary figures, President Franklin Roosevelt with a passionate and illuminating retelling of a seismic era from the perspective of 'the other woman.' Louise Dean, award-winning author and founder of The Novelry

Spinster Daisy Suckley, a cousin of Franklin Roosevelt, was one of a band of unconventional women close to FDR along with Frances Perkins, the architect of social security, Eleanor Roosevelt, the fiery labour organiser, and Missy LeHand, the supersecretary who was a political operative in her right.

FDR gave them careers. In turn, they ensured his presidency was stronger and bolder and more effective. But they all had their own secrets and ways of working the system. Told through Daisy's eyes, their friendships, animosities, affairs and political agendas shaped the president's terms. This is their story, the women who influenced FDR, as told by his alternative wife, Daisy.
