Description
Reunited after the Indian Mutiny of 1857, the four May girls are restless. Catherine goes to work as a governess on a remote tea plantation, where she discovers that her employer has murdered an Indian worker. Timid Fanny comes out of her shell to play a star role in the sensational trial that follows. Meanwhile, Jane and Elizabeth travel to England, where they must resist the Victorian belief that motherhood is every woman's destiny, without giving up on love. This hilarious and exciting sequel to the acclaimed Little Women in India sees the sisters balancing the claims of romance, ambition, and conscience... in an unjust world. Praise for Little Women in India: "A fun, fast-paced read for fans of 19th-century female writers." Anne Christenson, Milwaukee Magazine "Exciting and exotic, this very different version features four girls, who all resemble Alcott's heroines, but they're cleverly re-imagined for today's readers. . . . I enjoyed Little Women in India immensely." - Lisa Sanderson, Book Addiction It raises moral questions yet doesn't just spell out the answers for the reader, which is refreshing... very imaginative and well-researched." - Lost in Books "[An] easy-to-read piece of light historical fiction." - Linda Frederiksen, Portland Book Review "Nardin draws upon Jane Austen's works to instill in her characters a touch of sense and sensibility. The novel can be enjoyed as a standalone book, but readers familiar with Alcott and Austen will appreciate the story's intertextual dimension." - Focus on Women Magazine
