Publisher's Synopsis
What's an intelligent teenager do upon deciding to leave home? Deirdre's answer is to wander the world on her own terms, surviving on wits, wiles, and will power. But it's not as easy as that!
Deirdre, the Temptress - Volume SIX of the Deirdre, the Wanderer series - by Jonnie Comet. Deirdre washes up on the shore of an idyllic land and enthusiastically enters a discreet and discerning society. But the surreal serenity is more than skin-deep. Relying upon all her interpersonal skills, as well as long-neglected lessons from her childhood, the indefatigable teenaged heroine must survive in the face of others' intolerance, institutionalised prejudice, and a palpable but unspoken need to rely upon her... realising her own sinful nature as well as the very best of her own character. And she might just find a way forwards to what she wants most of all: a safe, happy home of her own. 'It is nought but the fear of woman's heart,And a dream of the night, Deirdre.'
