At 11:00 a.m. on Wednesday, April 7, 1926, a woman stepped out of the crowd on Rome's Campidoglio Square and shot Mussolini at pointblank range. He escaped virtually unscathed. Violet Gibson, who expected to be thanked for her action, was arrested, labeled a 'crazy Irish spinster' and a 'halfmad mystic'and promptly forgotten. Now, in an elegant work of reconstruction, Frances Stonor Saunders retrieves this remarkable figure from the lost historical record. In a grand tragic narrative, full of suspense and mystery, conspiracy and backroom diplomacy, she vividly resurrects the life and times of a woman who sought to forestall catastrophe, whatever the cost.
