About this ebook
The President's wife - is she a victim or a heroine?
Is she a victim or a heroine? Beth Wilford Avery is the most famous woman in the world. At twenty-one, she saves the future President of the United States from an assassin's bullet and becomes the perfect candidate for the position of First Lady. Born into a prominent political family, Beth knows how to appear poised in public, how to smile for the cameras and, most importantly, how to keep secrets. Until she meets someone to whom she needs to reveal the truth about her life ... Sharp, witty and insightful, the President's Wife is not only a suspenseful story of a public marriage and private anguish, and a telling account of political spin and manipulation, it also explores the way certain charismatic women become icons who exercise an enduring fascination in the lives of millions.
