Fiona Davis is back on the podcast this week to discuss her thrilling new novel The Spectacular, which transports us back to 1950s Manhattan and glamorous Radio City Music Hall with a talented young Rockette and a mysterious bomber terrorizing New York City.
“Fiona Davis just gets better and better! Nineteen-year-old dance teacher Marion, feeling trapped by her straitlaced father and her upcoming engagement, impulsively auditions for the Rockettes and is soon flung into a sequined world of grueling rehearsals, stage glitter, and four shows per day. When an anonymous bomber targets Radio City Music Hall, Marion’s glittering new life reveals a dangerous dark side and she is flung into the search for a killer–but how can a kick-line dancer help save the city she loves? The Spectacular dazzles from start to finish.” –Kate Quinn, New York Times bestselling author of The Diamond Eye
