Mad, Bad & Dangerous to Know is a love letter to all the invisible women of history. It is also a romantic adventure through Paris, and a truly fascinating historical mystery. Leila and Khayyam's stories intertwine beautifully over the course of the book, making it one that you won't want to put down. Mystery, history, romance and Paris are all blended together in this wonderful book, making for a truly special read, and a powerful ode to the nameless women, especially women of colour, whose stories were never told.
