Product Overview

Middleburg Mystique reveals the charms, gossip, and scandals of this small well-to-do village, and the surrounding swath of horse farms just 50 miles west of Washington, D.C. It tells of scandalous divorces (like actor Robert Duvalls wife running off with the poolman) and racy murders (like arms heiress Susan Cummings shooting her Argentinean polo-playing lover). Middleburg has captivated the Kennedys, Elizabeth Taylor, Robert Wagner, and Oliver North. It has gossiped about misdeeds, then turned around and protected both rich and lowly as if they were all family. Middleburg Mystique also provides an insiders peek behind the grand stone entrances of massive estates with names such as The Meadows or Heathfield that belong to families such as the Firestones, Mellons, and Marriotts.
