Sisi: Empress on Her Own: A Novel

A juicy historical novel about one of history’s little-known heroines during a volatile period-19th century Vienna’s Habsburg Empress Elizabeth, Sisi.

In imperial Vienna, where the court halls buzzed with waltzes and champagne, as well as temptation, rivals, and cutthroat intrigue, the intensely personal tale of Empress Sisi unraveled. Famously beautiful, a mother of four, and wife of Emperor Franz Joseph - whom she unintentionally stole away from her sister - Sisi’s reign was anything but simple.

Set against the backdrop of a rich, romantic, and fascinating time period, 1867-1898-marked by pivotal events such as the opening of the Suez Canal, Vienna’s World Exhibition, and the lead up to WWI, this novel illuminates both Sisi, the beloved Fairy Queen, and a Golden Age for Europe.
