Lisa Hilton’s book is yet another attempt to explore the fascinating enigma that was Nancy Mitford, but this time taking the more unusual route of closely examining her romance with Gaston Palewski, who was to serve as the model for her devastatingly charming French aristocrat, Fabrice de Sauveterre.
