I love when historical fiction falls into a new sliver of history I was formerly very clueless about. This book covers a real life inspiration for Hitler you've never heard of, the building of the Biltmore, and a New Orleans Italian scandal.
With a very upstairs/downstairs vibe, this book weaves together characters of the upper and lower classes into a story that will have you turning to the page to discover what happens next. I appreciate that the author didn't over simplify relationships or issue and didn't wrap everything up in a tidy bow, while still leaving you satisfied with the ending.
