One of the most influential women in modern history, Golda Meir was a member of the tiny coterie of founders of the State of Israel, the architect of its socialist infrastructure, and its most tenacious international defender. In this masterful biography, a critically acclaimed author and Pulitzer Prize-nominated journalist looks beyond Meir's well-known accomplishments to the complex motivations and ideals of her charismatic public persona.

"Everyone," claims the character Abigail, "has a book or a writer who's the key to their life." As this statement reverberates through each narrative, Margot Livesey skillfully reveals how luck--good and bad--plays a vital role in our lives, and how the search for truth can prove a dangerous undertaking. Written with her characteristic elegance and wit, The House on Fortune Street offers a surprisingly provocative detective story of the heart.

"Like Lone Creek, [Neil] McMahon's first novel to boast a Montana setting, this fine crime novel fairly glows with the big skies, rough country, and outsize characters of his home state. …it's the compelling prose, sense of place, and sympathetic characters that make the book a joy to read."--Publishers Weekly
