Making Trouble (Tongued with Fire)

- An Imagined History of Harriet Elphinstone Dick and Alice C Moon

Om Making Trouble (Tongued with Fire)

In the winter of 1875, two rebellious spirits travel from England to Australia. Harriet Rowell (age 22) and Alice Moon (age 18) were champion swimmers in a time when women didn't go into the sea; and they were in love in a time when many women were in love with each other but held such love secretly. Harriet and Alice took on the world at a dangerous time for women's freedom of expression, but their love ended when Alice moved to Sydney to become a writer. Before Harriet can get over her grief from the breakup, tragedy strikes; Alice is found dead in her bed at thirty-seven. Suspicions rest upon the powerful, chauvinistic scientist, John McGarvie Smith, with whom Alice had been working in her newfound capacity as a journalist. This book seeks to uncover the truth of Alice's death and seek justice.
