Riassunto

Even before Lady Diana Spencer married into the most revered family on earth, she had her suspicions that the kith and kin of Prince Charles were not all they seemed-to-be. No sooner had she become the Princess of Wales and moved into Kensington Palace than her fears were confirmed: the House of Windsor constituted a flawed dynasty. She found herself trapped in a world of scandal, deceit and treachery. Diana’s Nightmare reveals the previously untold secrets Diana discovered about her royal relatives. This book exposes how intensely Charles and Camilla Parker Bowles contrived to exclude her, it reveals the Queen was angry and bitter at her family’s indiscretions, how the Queen Mother’s indifference was matched only by Prince Philip’s blind range over Diana’s determination to find her own path, what really went on between the Duke and Duchess of York and how Prince Edward witnessed Diana’s tantrums at Balmoral . . . Diana’s own secret life. “Filled with new insights into the troubled life of the beautiful Princess. I remained riveted to the end.” - DOMINICK DUNNE

L'autore:

THE writer and broadcaster Chris Hutchins is an established author of highly acclaimed biographies of the rich, the famous and the royals. His first, Fergie Confidential, was an intimate biography of the Duchess of York and chronicled her troubled marriage to the Queen’s favourite son, Prince Andrew. He followed this with a revelatory biography of the late Princess of Wales, Diana’s Nightmare: The Family, a book which so established him as an authority on the royals that he was invited to cover Prince Charles’ subsequent marriage for American television. Books that followed include Elvis Meets the Beatles - a rendezvous he arranged during his close association with all five – ATHINA: The Last Onassis , which probed deeply into the world of the Onassis dynasty and GOLDSMITH: Money, Women and Power, the biography of the late billionaire entrepreneur, Sir James Goldsmith. More recently Hutchins turned his attention to matters Russian with fearless biographies of the country’s leader, PUTIN, and best-known oligarch, ABRAMOVICH: The billionaire from nowhere. The author returned to the royal stage with a revealing book about Diana’s son, HARRY: The People’s Prince Then it was back to rock’n roll with THE BEATLES: Messages from John, Paul George and Ringo which featured on its cover one of the postcards John Lennon sent to the author during his travels. As Prince Charles’ former secretary Mark Bolland says of him: ‘Chris Hutchins seems to have seen and done it all . . . ’ follow Chris Hutchins on Twitter @ChrisHutchinsFn www.chrishutchins.info
