About this listen

Camille Di Maio's novel The First Emma is the true story of Emma Koehler, whose tycoon husband, Otto, was killed in a crime-of-the-century murder by one of his two mistresses - both also named Emma - and her unlikely rise as CEO of a brewing empire during Prohibition. When a chance to tell her story to a young teetotaler arises, a tale unfolds of love, war, beer, and the power of women.

Just absolutely brilliant! You get drawn in and can’t wait to see what happens next. I finished in less than 2 days. After reading the memory of us which is my favourite book of 2023 I can’t wait to read all of Camille’s other works. I even think I’ll love for her to write my biography 🕊️

Love Camille’s style of writing now and forever
