In collaboration with the History Book Festival, join us to talk with TaraShea Nesbit, author of Beheld, one of the books featured at the 2020 virtual History Book Festival.

Ten years after the Mayflower Pilgrims established a colony based on the dream of religious freedom, Plymouth is led by fervent Puritans who prohibit residents from living, trading, and worshipping as they choose. The arrival of new colonists ratchets up the tension in this mystery novel that reframes the story of the Pilgrims through the previously unheard voices of two women of very different status and means. This is a story about a murder and a trial that asks: whose stories get told over time, who gets believed, and who gets punished?

TaraShea Nesbit is the author of the national bestseller The Wives of Los Alamos. She is an assistant professor and Altman Scholar at Miami University in Oxford, Ohio.
