Description
The year is 1906.
Johnny Purvis has gone to jail, convicted of killing Cleopatra’s brutish husband.
The three women that loved him, Emma, Miriam and Cleopatra, try to forget, each coming to terms with the fact their lives will never be the same again.
Emma has achieved her ambition and gains the freedom to do as she pleases — but her poverty-stricken past comes back to haunt her.
Faced with all the wealth she desires, she tries to help her family.
But can all the wealth replace happiness?
Her impulsive nature leads her towards a dangerous liaison with Harry Vivaldi, who is new to the town. Harry is devoted to seeking his ambition through the most cunning means.
Miriam reverts to the timid, retiring person she was before the Fancy Man’s glorious summer. But then her natural sense of justice is rekindled as a new cause presents itself — that of women’s emancipation.
Joining forces with ‘sisters’ with a similar devotion, Miriam discovers an inner strength she never knew she had.
And Cleopatra, now a wealthy widow and free of her husband’s drunken boorishness, flirts with the attentions of her employee Ozzie Clarke.
Faced with freedom and immense wealth, Cleopatra focuses on becoming a business women.
Despite choosing different paths, these Edwardian women’s stories are entwined in a web of scandal, romance and destiny.
The Sisterhood is a captivating Edwardian romance which follows on from ‘Beautiful Strangers’, previously published under the name ‘The Summer of the Fancy Man’.
