Women of a Lesser God

In Women of a Lesser God, Sophia Travato, now Jenco, returns with a new set of trials. Another Vatican scandal has forced the Curia�s hand to enact a coverup of historical proportions. As Sophia exposes the pope�s blatant depravity, she must concoct her own elaborate coverup in order to protect an illegally established family legacy. Travel across Europe and linger awhile with colorful characters on the streets of the bohemian Roman village of Trastevere. Feast your eyes on the brilliant Bougainvillea draping down the sides of homes. Taste the food, walk the ancient streets, and find refuge from the suspense in the gardens of the Zen Monastery, or experience Acqua Alta as raging waters flood the Calles and Venice�s piazzas. Then travel farther, across eastern Europe, to poverty-stricken Romania, where Sophia vows to protect Lauretta�s legacy. Women of a Lesser God�exposes little-known historical events surrounding the Holocaust in Italy and current social injustices including the suppression of women.
