Praise For This Book


"When I want to read a book I know will be good, I go to Silvia Moreno-Garcia. Her genres are ever-changing, and her ability to take on a wild story each time is incredible. You never know what she's going to do, but you know it will be a page-turner."-Taylor Jenkins Reid, New York Times bestselling author of Daisy Jones & The Six

"Using a kaleidoscope of perspectives, Moreno-Garcia skillfully depicts the rise of a starlet in 1950s Hollywood, capturing not only the glamour of poolside parties but also the sordid underbelly of the industry. That alone would be a great read, but she also weaves in the original story of Salome, adding rich layers to a story that bubbles with anticipation and will leave you spellbound."-Fiona Davis, New York Times bestselling author of The Spectacular

"I've been a huge Silvia Moreno-Garcia fan since her sensational Mexican Gothic, but this epic of 1950s Hollywood really hits my sweet spot. The Seventh Veil of Salome is absolutely not to be missed!"-Kate Quinn, New York Times bestselling author of The Diamond Eye

"I've long been a fan of Silvia Moreno-Garcia's writing-she's one of the most versatile, quirky, and interesting writers around. In The Seventh Veil of Salome, she reveals-veil by veil-layers of emotion, character, the Bible, and Hollywood. What a fun and compelling dance!"-Lisa See, New York Times bestselling author of Lady Tan's Circle of Women

"This is a darkly thrilling gem of a novel, a page-turner that winds ever more tightly around its twin heroines as they navigate biblical court intrigues and 1950s studio scandals. Like the best Hollywood epics, The Seventh Veil of Salome catches you in its spell and won't let go until the credits roll!"-Helene Wecker, author of The Golem and the Jinni and The Hidden Palace

"Intelligent, exciting, and written absolutely beautifully ... Moreno-Garcia proves, once again, that she is a master of her craft."-Kirkus Reviews, starred review
