✦ Synopsis


A stroke of luck granted Linny the chance to re-create herself as a proper middle-class young lady, allowing her to join β€œthe fishing fleet”—young women of good birth who sailed to India in search of husbands. India, with its exotic colors, sights, and smells, is a world away from the cold back alleys of Linny’s childhood. But even there, she is haunted by her past, and by the constant threat of discovery. Soon she finds that respectability and marriage bring a new kind of imprisonment.
