ZINGARA Tale of a Feisty Gypsy (Youth Fiction)
Summer Harbour, Ontario, Canada 1863.
Lilian is the type of girl who tries to keep to herself, but
the large scar running down her face and her tendency to have tantrums or
‘wobblies’ as she calls them, make her stick out like a sore thumb. Not to
mention that she is living with a clan of thieving gypsies that think she’s
rotten goods because she cannot cast a spell, let alone become a great fortune-teller
like her Mother.
When she goes off and meets a local farm boy, Lillian is
shocked that he doesn’t call her worm face like the other children and even
more surprised when he tells her that she’s beautiful. With the possibility of a forbidden love,
Lillian begins to wonder if her dreams of living a quiet life in the country
could actually come true but Ted, the new leader of the clan, has other more
sinister ideas for Lillian’s future.
