All she has is her journal, a newspaper clipping, and unsharpened pencils." So ends the first chapter of The Leprous Veil of Love drawing the reader irrevocably into the lives of three women: Manon, who tries to heal her broken heart by risking all in a sexually dangerous liaison; Emma, who entraps a faithless husband by conceiving twins; and Jessica, who is caught in a web of complicity between her sister and her oldest friend. A final and inevitable act of revenge unveils the duplicity that has kept each woman masquerading behind her own silence.
