Madame Zee by Pearl Luke (Hardcover)

Pearl Luke's second novel is a fictional account of the life of Mabel Rowbotham, the real woman who became "Madame Zee," mistress to the notorious Brother XII and his 1920s British Columbia cult, infamous for its gold, sex and black magic. Told through Mabel's eyes, it's a vivid, sensual and darkly funny portrait of a woman caught up in one of the strangest episodes in Canadian history. From the author of Burning Ground, regional winner of the Commonwealth Writers' Prize for Best First Book.
