Netgalley and Dreamscape Media provided me with a copy of The Lindbergh Nanny for review:

Betty How, the Nanny who discovered Baby Charlie was missing and who some suspected of committing the murder, tells the story of The Lindbergh kidnapping through her eyes.

Charles Lindbergh, Jr., the most famous toddler in America, is kidnapped from his family home in New Jersey in 1932, making international headlines. A country’s golden boy, Charles Lindbergh, Sr., is already celebrated for his flight across the Atlantic, accompanied by his wealthy, beautiful wife, Anne Morrow Lindbergh. There’s someone else in their household: Betty Gow, a formerly obscure young woman now known around the world as the Lindbergh Nanny.

As a Scottish immigrant navigating her new homeland and its East Coast elite, Betty finds Colonel Lindbergh eccentric and often odd, Mrs. Lindbergh kind but nervous, and Charlie simply adorable. Despite being away from home and bruised from a love affair gone wrong, Betty finds comfort in caring for the child and warms to handsome sailor Henrik. .Charlie disappears after that.

In order to clear her name and find justice for the child she loves, Betty must uncover the truth about what really happened that night.

I give The Lindbergh Nanny five out of five stars!

Happy Reading!
