The Garden on Elder Lane
by Rebecca Jane Hills

DEPLORABLE YOUNG LADIES is a wild, comic, sometimes terrifying blend of history and mystery. The story follows five devoted girlfriends in 1920s Chicago - including a secret lesbian horse groomer and a crackerjack hoofer - as they expose a conspiracy sanctioned by The Women of the Ku Klux Klan. Fans of "The Magnolia Palace" will relish the historical detail in a novel which takes place in the past, but speaks to readers in terms of what’s happening in our world – right now.
