Opis

Virtuous Dove captures a sedate traditional look of life as it was in Victoria England. Newly released, this was the first book published in the Doves Collect series. Abolitionist, Felicity Phelps witnessing her mother and father's gruesome death; aiding runners in the Underground Railroad, flees America to Victoria England, the land of her ancestors. Discover with Felicity that not all appears as it is on the surface of the elite of society and those of the unfortunate forced to live in workhouses. Both classes are equally vulnerable when wealth and power are at stake. Can her virtues be altered when greed, power, and the suppression of the truth test her own belief system and those of others around her? No matter how you want to begin this riveting series, Dove Collect touches down on the theme of suppression of one group over another; the North over the South, the slave owner over the slave, white over black, one nationality over another and man over woman.
