Описание: He's her saint . . . now she'll be his sinner.
Saint
Briar is more than my muse-she's my soulmate.
She just doesn't know it yet.
After a writing retreat in seclusion with me, she'll never want to leave. And if she does? Perhaps I simply won't let her.
After all, what's a saint without his sinner?
Briar
My masked stalker is forcing me to stay with him in his Gothic manor. He claims we're here for a writing retreat, but I know the real reason he brought me here.
I'm his muse, and he's going to lock me up forever.
But I can't leave my life behind. I won't. No matter how much he makes me want to stay.
Especially when it seems like Saint de Haas may not be the only one stalking me...
Описание: In 1952, a woman named Hadija was brought to trial in an Islamic courtroom in the Cameroon Grassfields on a charge of bigamy. Quickly, however, the court proceedings turned to the question of whether she had been the wife or the slave-concubine of her deceased husband. In tandem with other court cases of the day, Harmony O'Rourke illuminates a set of contestations in which marriage, slavery, morality, memory, inheritance, status, and identity were at stake for Muslim Hausa migrants, especially women. As she tells Hadija's story, O'Rourke disrupts dominant patriarchal and colonial narratives that have emphasized male activities and projects to assert cultural distinctiveness, and she brings forward a new set of women's issues involving concerns for personal prosperity, the continuation of generations, and Islamic religious expectations in communities separated by long distances.
