But headstrong, passionate Laura wants more, and when she takes a leap of faith and applies to the Columbia Journalism School, her world is cracked wide open. As her studies take her all over the city, she finds herself drawn to Greenwich Village's new bohemia, where she discovers the Heterodoxy Club--a radical, all-female group in which women are encouraged to loudly share their opinions on suffrage, birth control, and women's rights. Soon, Laura finds herself questioning her traditional role as wife and mother. But when valuable books are stolen back at the library, threatening the home and institution she loves, she's forced to confront her shifting priorities head on . . . and may just lose everything in the process. Eighty years later, in 1993, Sadie Donovan struggles with the legacy of her grandmother, the famous essayist Laura Lyons, especially after she's wrangled her dream job as a curator at the New York Public Library. But the job quickly becomes a nightmare when rare manuscripts, notes, and books for the exhibit Sadie's running begin disappearing from the library's famous Berg Collection. Determined to save both the exhibit and her career, the typically risk-adverse Sadie teams up with a private security expert to uncover the culprit. However, things unexpectedly become personal when the investigation leads Sadie to some unwelcome truths about her own family heritage--truths that shed new light on the biggest tragedy in the library's history."--Provided by publisher. 610 20 $a New York Public Library $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Grandmothers $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Libraries $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Book thefts $v Fiction. 650 1 $a Grandmothers $x Fiction. 650 7 $a FICTION / Historical / General. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a FICTION / Mystery & Detective / General. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a FICTION / Sagas. $2 bisacsh 610 27 $a New York Public Library. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00531122 650 7 $a Book thefts. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00836250 650 7 $a Grandmothers. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00946353 650 7 $a Libraries. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00997341 650 7 $a Women $x Fiction. $x New York $x Fiction. $2 sears 650 7 $a New York Public Library $x Fiction. $2 sears 650 7 $a New York (N.Y.) $x Fiction. $x 20th century $x Fiction. $2 sears 653 $a US & CAN historical fiction 655 0 $a Historical fiction. 655 0 $a Mystery fiction. 655 7 $a Detective and mystery fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01726581 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423787 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01726640 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 gsafd 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Detective and mystery fiction. $2 lcgft 776 08 $i Online version: $a Davis, Fiona, 1966- $t The lions of Fifth Avenue. $b First edition $d New York : Dutton, [2020] $z 9781524744625 $w (DLC) 2019057270 830 0 $a Good Morning America book club. 941 $a 1 $n 1 952 $l S1PD771 $d 20210823131424.0 $n 20 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=72DFF93001EE11EC92E63B9E153FDB2A 994 $a C0 $b IOZInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
