Synopsis
When the police bring Mary Brown, an old street woman dressed in rags before judge Alsia Caneron, she sits silent and unresponsive to the questions put before her. Alisa, deeply perturbed by this enlists the aid of Camilla, a social worker. Together, they help reveal Mary Brown's past as an accomplished opera singer. Could she be the mysterious opera star Magdalena who disappeared three years before after the death of her lifelong companion?

About the Author
Publisher’s comments Following the recent death of writer/publisher Anyda Marchant (pen name, Sarah Aldridge), at age 95, A&M Books of Rehoboth Beach is making available all 14 of the classic and groundbreaking Sarah Aldridge novels. Written between 1974 and 2003, the novels represent a melding of history, feminism and lesbian romance. The first novel was published by the fledgling Naiad Press, which went on to become the largest and most successful lesbian/feminist publisher in the country. Marchant was Naiad president from its founding until 1995.
In 1995, Marchant and Muriel Crawford, (her partner of more than half a century) withdrew from Naiad and founded A&M Books of Rehoboth Beach, DE. The last Sarah Aldridge book, O, Mistress Mine, was written and published when the author was 92 years young. A&M Books, continuing under the leadership of writer Fay Jacobs (Author of As I Lay Frying – A Rehoboth Beach Memoir) is set to carry out the legacy begun by Marchant and Crawford - making all of the Sarah Aldridge titles available once again and continuing to give women writers a voice. Author Comments “Publishing is not about the money, it’s about giving women a voice to tell their stories – and every book is an ambassador.”
Anyda Marchant (Sarah Aldridge) 1911-2006
