When you're tired of reading about well-behaved women, Mistress of Mogador is a love story of passion and intrigue, a story of adventure and danger, in a world of secrets, opportunity and menace.
From 19th-century Liverpool to the port of Mogador, Morocco, peril and risk are everywhere. Nora Mandrake, a British ship owner and captain, must navigate more than rough seas as she chooses between an old love and a new one. But in a country where tradition governs all and cultural differences constrain movements, a woman must decide what she is willing to risk for an uncommon love in a world pivoting unsteadily on the eve of the 20th century.
Mandrake soon realizes her most dangerous enemy is herself—her passions force her to confront the troubling realization that her attitudes toward women are not much more enlightened than the prevailing male attitudes she has come to loathe in the Morocco she has come to love. How could this happen to a lover of women? Mandrake wants it all, and all of it is what she stands to lose.
