Midwives: On an
icy winter night in an isolated house in rural Vermont, a
seasoned midwife named Sibyl Danforth takes desperate
measures to save a baby’s life. She performs an emergency
cesarean section on a mother she believes has died of a
stroke. But what if Sibyl’s patient wasn’t dead—and Sybil
inadvertently killed her? As Sibyl faces the antagonism of
the law, the hostility of traditional doctors, and the
accusations of her own conscience, Midwives engages, moves,
and transfixes us as only the very best novels ever do.
Just a few years ago, George Street Playhouse presented a
stage adaptation — click here to

The
Flight Attendant: In his twentieth book (and now a
series on MAX), Chris Bohjalian took riveting storytelling
to a new cruising altitude. A mesmerizing tale of denial
and revelation, The Flight Attendant novel opened in an
opulent hotel suite overseas, where Cassandra Bowden awoke
to find herself in bed with a dead man. What will happen to
her in season two? New city, new job, and even more
secrets.

The Lioness: Tanzania,
1964. When Katie Barstow, A-list actress, and her new
husband, David Hill, decide to bring their Hollywood
friends to the Serengeti for their honeymoon, they
envision giraffes gently eating leaves from the tall
acacia trees, great swarms of wildebeests crossing the
Mara River, and herds of zebras storming the sandy
plains. Their glamorous guests—including Katie’s best
friend, Carmen Tedesco, and Terrance Dutton, the
celebrated Black actor who stars alongside Katie in the
highly controversial film Tender Madness—will
spend their days taking photos, and their evenings
drinking chilled gin and tonics back at camp, as the
local Tanzanian guides warm water for their baths. The
wealthy Americans expect civilized adventure: fresh ice
from the kerosene-powered ice maker, dinners of cooked
gazelle meat, and plenty of stories to tell over lunch
back on Rodeo Drive.
