Review by: Smudge
Henry & Meg Oades move to New Zealand where Henry has accepted a
post as an accountant. Not too long after, Meg and the children are
abducted by the Maori and enslaved. After an unsuccessful search,
Henry, convinced they are dead, moves to California. When Meg and the
children find him several year later, Henry has remarried. Meg and the
children move into Henry's new home. This novel is the story of bigamy
trials that ensue and the friendship that develops between the two
wives. (The author based the story on a law case that may have been a
hoax. Nonetheless, the book makes you think about bigamy as a less
black-and-white way.)
