My guest this week is New York Times Bestelling author Martha Hall Kelly. In fact, Martha’s debut novel
Lilac Girls, became a
New York Times bestseller the week it was published. It then went on to sell over two million copies and be published in 50 countries. She followed that book with two more in the series. Martha’s latest book,
The Golden Doves, is a standalone work of historical fiction set just in the aftermath of WWII. It features two former female spies - one hunting down an infamous Nazi doctor, and one searching for a son who may or may not still be alive.
In our conversation, Martha shares her research process, where she finds the inspirations for her characters, how she crafts characters who stay linked despite their differences, and so much more. Then, she treats us to a reading from her book.

About UsSince well before Victor Hugo looked up at Notre Dame and thought, "Huh... what if a hunchback lived in there?" authors have been inspired by Paris. The Storytime in Paris podcast will help keep this tradition alive with short interviews and readings from your favorite contemporary authors with a French connection.
Every episode will feature five questions, asked by you, our authors' biggest fans, and answered live on air. Then, our authors will treat us to a reading of an excerpt from their book. Who knows? Maybe you'll even be inspired to write your own Great French Novel. Happy listening!
