The Secrets We Kept - by Lara Prescott

The Secrets We Kept is a captivating and heart-wrenching tale of love, duty, and sacrifice set against the backdrop of the Cold War.

This debut novel by Lara Prescott masterfully weaves together two narratives - that of Olga Ivinskaya, the inspiration for Boris Pasternak's literary masterpiece Dr.

Zhivago, and that of a group of CIA secretaries tasked with smuggling the book into the Soviet Union.

With prose that is both "wily as its plot" (Vogue) and "a gorgeous and romantic feast of a novel" (The New York Times), The Secrets We Kept is an unforgettable and timely tale of the power of art to change the world.
