From\u00a0New York Times\u00a0bestselling author Shelley Noble comes a thrilling historical novel about the inception of the Colony Club, the first women\u2019s club of its kind, set against the dazzling backdrop of Gilded Age New York.\u00a0<\/p>\n

When young Gilded Age society matron Daisy Harriman is refused a room at the Waldorf because they don\u2019t cater to unaccompanied females, she takes matters into her own hands. She establishes the Colony Club, the first women\u2019s club in Manhattan, where visiting women can stay overnight and dine with their friends; where they can discuss new ideas, take on social issues, and make their voices heard. She hires the most sought-after architect in New York, Stanford White, to design the clubhouse.<\/p>\n

As \u201cthe best dressed actress on the Rialto\u201d Elsie de Wolfe has an eye for d\u00e9cor, but her career is stagnating. So when White asks her to design the clubhouse interiors, she jumps at the chance and the opportunity to add a woman\u2019s touch. He promises to send her an assistant, a young woman he\u2019s hired as a draftsman.<\/p>\n

Raised in the Lower East Side tenements, Nora Bromely is determined to become an architect in spite of hostility and sabotage from her male colleagues. She is disappointed and angry when White \u201cfoists\u201d her off on this new women\u2019s club project.<\/p>\n

But when White is murdered and the ensuing Trial of the Century discloses the architect\u2019s scandalous personal life, fearful backers begin to withdraw their support. It\u2019s questionable whether the club will survive long enough to open.<\/p>\n

Daisy, Elsie, and Nora have nothing in common but their determination to carry on. But to do so, they must overcome not only society\u2019s mores but their own prejudices about women, wealth, and each other. Together they strive to transform Daisy\u2019s dream of the Colony Club into a reality, a place that will nurture social justice and ensure the work of the women who earned the nickname \u201cMink Brigade\u201d far into the future.<\/p>\n
