What a wonderful account of Lola's life. Although true life It reads like a fiction novel. I was amazed at her strength and the way she blew hot and cold throughout her life. This book is very well written and the author takes us on an amazing journey through the life of Lola Montez. Who knew such a woman ever lived. She got way with murder, almost - she was pretty close to it at times.  I just could not put this book down and read it in one day and long long evening. No one could stand up to to Lola's magnificent although selfish and spiteful nature. Although it seems she mellowed towards the end of her life. I love historical fiction and mystery and this real life story falls into that genre. So do yourself a favor and read this book. You will not be disappointed. I just downloaded another of Harriet Steel's books  "Salvation" which looks like it's going to be a great thriller/mystery fiction tale of a trio living in the time of Elizabeth 1st. Can't wait.
