Mrs. Victoria buys a Brothel

Description
1865, United States- It took thirty years and a dislocated arm for Victoria to leave her abusive husband. Heartbroken, she has to choose her own life over the hope of ever seeing her son again. She escapes the manor in the dead of night, only bringing with her a white wedding dress. She ends up in Swainsburg, a minuscule town in Wyoming, where she's adopted by the local prostitutes. To save them from expulsion, she buys the building and learns that in these parts, entertainment is worth more than gold. It's almost easy, even fun, to organize piano recitals and cancan shows for the cowboys of the area, but being a Madam comes with responsibilities and dangers she isn't ready to face. Her husband, after all, has contacts everywhere. It's hard to navigate the delicate tensions between respectable ladies and whores, between white society and the 'others.' Her new friends are women who carved their place in this merciless life; people who, like her, ended up in Swainsburg when they got tired of running. Victoria falls in love. She doesn't notice, she can't even imagine the possibility. The townfolk say the widow Díaz is strange. Natane is actually incredibly awkward, kind, and very lonely. Victoria has no name for this burning friendship, but the feeling grows and demands to be acknowledged. This is a story about women who age, gossip, drink, love, and help you hide the body of your dead husband.
