Nineteen-fifties America is bright and full of promise, and Phoebe Adler, a New Yorker brimming with talent and ambition, is forging her way as the rarest of things: a female television writer in Hollywood. But fears of a growing Red Menace cloud the optimism, egged on by the hate-mongering of Senator McCarthy. A blacklist is created to cast out communist sympathizers, smashing careers and ruining lives. When Phoebe finds herself caught in the hysteria's web, she flees to London. Though postwar London is struggling and work is precarious, Phoebe finds camaraderie with other Americans living in exile, including the restless and ambitious Hannah Wolfson. Determined to fight the injustices of the Red Scare, Hannah is a successful producer who hires blacklisted writers at great risk to her career and company. Together Phoebe and Hannah successfully fight unfair bias and sexism, but danger still looms in this supposed sanctuary. And when their families and friends--their very lives--are threatened, they will have to make impossible choices"--   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hanapepe Public Library Adult Fiction Stratford Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Fiction Stratford Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kihei Public Library Adult Fiction Stratford Checked In Add Copy to MyList Lihue Public Library Adult Fiction Stratford Checked In Add Copy to MyList Makawao Public Library Adult Fiction Stratford Checked In Add Copy to MyList North Kohala Public Library Adult Fiction Stratford Checked In Add Copy to MyList Nanakuli Public Library Adult Fiction Stratford Checked In Add Copy to MyList
