Buxton Books is honored to partner with Sourcebooks and celebrate Marie Benedict’s newest novel, Her Hidden Genius.
ABOUT THE BOOK:
“Rosalind Franklin has always been an outsider—brilliant, but different. When she is assigned to work on DNA, she knows she can be the one to unlock the building blocks of life. Never again will she have to listen to her colleagues complain about her, especially Maurice Wilkins who'd rather conspire about genetics with James Watson and Francis Crick than work alongside her. Then it finally happens—the double helix structure of DNA reveals itself to her with perfect clarity. But what unfolds next, Rosalind could have never predicted.”
