Fiona Davis joined us for June's "Bookaccino Live" Book Group to discuss her New York Times bestseller, THE STOLEN QUEEN, which is a Bookreporter Bets On selection. She shares how the idea for the book came to her, the extensive research that she did (yes, including a trip to Egypt), and what it was like spending hours at the Metropolitan Museum of Art to better understand how it is run behind the scenes. Fiona also explains how she developed her characters to work well with the timing of the story. And, to the delight of her readers, she talks about what's next for her.
