Allison Pataki is the author of the bestselling novels "Sisi," "The Traitor’s Wife," and "The Accidental Empress," as well as the co-author of "Where the Light Falls," with her brother Owen Pataki, and two children’s books.
Her new book marks a departure from her fiction writing. In "Beauty in the Broken Places: A Memoir of Love, Faith, and Resilience," Pataki tells the personal story of her husband Dave's rare and life-threatening stroke and the unfathomable experiences that unfolded around her and her family as he recovered.
