Emma’s curiosity is piqued by a young environmentalist with an antique trinket box full of women’s rights badges, but can she discover their secrets before disaster strikes?
Paige wants to make the world a better place in spite of her wealthy father who tries to curb her enthusiasm. She asks Emma for help unravelling a past she knows nothing about. But Emma doubts her ability to find the answers the girl is looking for without putting her own family in jeopardy.
In 1892, twenty-one-year-old Lucy has grown up in the glow of her father’s benevolence after her mother died, and winning the right to vote has become her raison d’être – greater even than her love for Richard. Unaccustomed to dissension, she is shocked when a man waylays her. Torn between winning the franchise and safeguarding those she loves, she redoubles her campaign efforts, but a moral dilemma puts her future at risk.
A dual-timeline novel that takes the reader from the realities of the modern world to the realities of the historical world.
If you enjoy tug-at-the-heart family stories that touch on personal dilemmas, love and friendship, and intrigue then you will love Vicky Adin’s The Art of Secrets series.
Praise for LUCY The Suffragist – a compelling tale of the courageous women who fought for justice and equality
I love a book that makes me care about the characters – and Emma, Paige and Lucy are definitely relatable to me. As with a good book, I didn’t want it to end, yet I was thrilled at the way their lives, Emma’s findings, Paige’s distress at the mysteries, and much more were resolved. Just as in real life, things don’t always end the way we plan, yet we can always work with what fate presents to us. Amazon Review
