HOLLYWOOD FILM FESTIVAL BOOK AWARD WINNER

Chapter Excerpt

"Superbly written and highly recommended... The movement for women's liberation and its intersection with the fate of one woman trapped in a turbulent and unhappy marriage form the substance of an exciting, emotional, reaching novel..." ~The Midwest Book Review "This late-Victorian love triangle opens with the emotional impact of a runaway train and ends in a way that will satisfy the heart... Ms. Karp has created a time machine in her attention to details of everyday life and societal norms of the late 19th century... I highly recommend this book." ~Romantic Times "Karp masterfully recreates the romance of the era through tearooms, the first electric light bulbs, and the horseless carriage, while creating a whirlwind plot that keeps readers guessing until the end." ~Ms. Magazine Bookshelf "The love triangle creates conflict that builds to a juggernaut of suspense... A great story...one that will stay with me." ~The Historical Novels Review "Karp has written an exquisitely plotted tale of female angst with her portrayal of Victorian expectations and morals, and sometimes-backward logic... Her characters jump off the page and become real, three-dimensional friends who dwell in the mind for days after the last page is turned..." ~Booklore "I was entranced by Emma, who is a strong, well-written, and well-rounded character." ~Bygone Days
