Constance leads a very secluded life with her two sisters on a farm in New York. Mother has kept all three girls away from the outside world but now Mother is dead and the girls run the farm themselves, against 1900s norms. While they initially want to stay hidden, real life comes knocking at their door.
When their buggy is demolished in an accident with an automobile, Constance finds herself standing up to Henry Kauffman, a bully and wannabe thug, who also happens to own a powerful silk dying operation.
What starts as a civil matter quickly morphs into a criminal one as the family finds themselves under attack by Kauffman’s gang of thugs. The more threatening the situation gets, the more determined Constance is to convict the criminals her and protect her family from harm. What will be enough to stop the terrifying threats and vandalism before one of Constance’s family is seriously hurt? As the situation unfolds, Constance is shaking off her past and reaching for a future which needs her strength and courage. Check out Girl Waits With Gun on your RBdigital account today.
