When Jeanne-Antoinette was nine, she was told by a fortune teller that she would one day become the mistress of the young Louix XV. Nancy Mitford tells the story of how the little girl rose, against a backdrop of intrigue, excess and high drama, to become the most powerful women of the 18th century French court, Le Pompadour.
