Diana
by Susan Hill
Though many have written about Diana, Princess of Wales, few have known Diana as intimately as Simone Simmons, the woman who became Dianas close personal friend and confidante following her painful and much-publicized separation and divorce. In 1993, Diana sought seclusion, recovery, and refuge. After meeting Simone at the Hale Clinic where she worked as a healer, Diana invited her to Kensington Palace. Their relationship soon blossomed into a precious friendship, as Diana trusted Simone with her most private thoughts, sharing every detail of her life and loves, her hopes and dreams.This lovingly written book offers a rare glimpse inside the life of the real Diana, revealing casual, contemplative moments, daily routines, and simple pleasures at home; the secret forays she took, often hiding in plain sight in various disguises, to Hampstead Heath and the jazz clubs of Soho; illuminating insight into her sometimes mercurial changes in temperament, stormy friendships, and complex relationship with the press; her deepest feelings about Prince Charles, Camilla Parker-Bowles, the royal family, and her two cherished sons, Princes William and Harry; the shocking truth about Dianas one true love and how losing him led her into the arms of playboy millionaire Dodi Fayed; and the astonishing stages of Dianas healing and personal growth, as she transformed herself from emotionally defeated victim to confident and self-reliant role model for millions of women around the world.A beautiful tribute to the remarkable woman behind the image, here is Diana as we have never seen her before--frank and off-guard, in leggings and plain T-shirts, honest and open and completely at ease. Full of penetrating insight, startling new revelations, and sixteen pages of candid color photographs, Diana: The Secret Years brings the People's Princess vividly to life for the people who love her--and who continue to celebrate her enduring memory and lasting legacy.

The Bodyguard's Story
by Moira Johnston
Trevor Rees-Jones was a young man who liked his job: serving on the security team of the spectacularly wealthy Mohamed Al Fayed. Then the Princess of Wales-charming, beautiful, outgoing-began a romance with Fayed's son Dodi. By the end of summer Trevor, Dodi, and Di would be hurtling through a hot Paris night in a Mercedes chased by packs of paparazzi-towards the fatal impact that would be heard around the world... Here, from Trevor's own point of view, is the gripping account of the weeks that led up to the crash, the relationship between Dodi and Diana, and the fateful, chaotic events of that tragic night. In the end, it is a profoundly moving story of a young man who entered a realm of fame and glamour, little realizing it would almost cost him his life and cast a dark shadow of suspicion over him...and that he would emerge from all of it with his dignity and honor intact. THE BODYGUARD'S STORY LAST HOURS As the Mercedes arrived, Henri Paul pushed open the metal-grille door and stepped towards the car to make the switch of drivers. Carrying enough alcohol in his bloodstream to make him more than twice over the drunk-driving limit, along with traces of other prescription drugs, Henri Paul slipped into the driver's seat. Had Trevor seen any sign of impairment, he knows he would have stopped him. But the moment passed. History moved forward. Trevor preceded the Princess out the door, followed by Dodi about ten feet behind. Flashbulbs popped as they walked around the back of the car to get to the rear right door, the Princess taking huge strides in her delicate high heels, eyes down, as Trevor briskly ushered her into the back seat. Seconds before 12:20 A.M., the Mercedes left, at speed, from the back of the hotel...[p. 87-89] An Alternate Selection of The Literary Guild® and of Doubleday Book Club®
