About this Event

The Penguin Bookshop is pleased to welcome back the New York Times bestselling authors Marie Benedict and Victoria Christopher Murray to celebrate the release of their latest book! A Pair of Aces is a gripping novel about two trailblazing women on opposite sides of the law—a prosecutor and a madam—who team up to bring down notorious Mob boss Lucky Luciano in 1930s New York.

Marie and Victoria will engage in a conversation about the book and provide some insight into their research and collaboration process. The discussion should last approximately one hour, and will conclude with a Q&A from the audience.

This is a ticketed event, and advance registration is required. The price of admission includes a signed copy of the book, which will be available for pickup during check-in for the event.
