Description
1872. When virginal Jenny Crispin is dumped at the altar by a chauvinistic cad, she does what any other modern Victorian girl would do—ditch her corset, move to New York City, and join Glorianna Talmadge’s free love presidential campaign. But free love and women presidential candidates aren’t particularly popular with the powers that be, and Jenny finds herself chased by a sadistic vice detective through the back alleys of New York. Homeless and penniless, she seeks out the one person in the city with the guts and knowledge to save her: a brothel hopping, virgin fearing, explosives expert named Britt Salter. Too bad he’s tied up trying to assassinate the visiting King of Egypt.
“The Cobbler’s Daughter opens with a literal bang and surges ahead from there, giving lovers of muscular historical novels everything we want: brave heroines and bold heroes, daring escapades, and fictional encounters with real, legendary figures, set against a backdrop of exotic period details.” —George Weinstein, author of the historical novels Hardscrabble Road and The Five Destinies of Carlos Moreno
