Bertha Maude Anderson has no inkling of how famous she will
become. She lives in the Appalachian Mountains of North Carolina in the year
1843. Her world changes forever when she is enticed to join The Romanoff Brothers
Circus and her name is changed to Inzared, Queen of the Elephant Riders.
Inzared discovers her true calling while learning to live with the nomadic
Gypsies. From the hatred shown by some of the performers to the love she finds
along the way, Inzared finds herself immersed in the rich folklore and customs
of the misunderstood people who call the circus their home. Her one constant is
Cecil, the elephant, and together they form a bond that no one can break as
Inzared finds herself lured into the world of the Gypsies while clinging to her
own roots and trying to break free of the chains that keep her from her
destiny.

ReplyDeleteHi Nancy and Linda, I read the lovely book, it has a wild twist at the end. Linda is a member of the blogging group, "Writing Wranglers and Warriors" that I belong to and she has become a good friend. I've read about her being and artists, but I haven't actually asked what type of painting does she do? Is there any photos of it? Sometimes we are so much more than authors. Thanks for the insights.
