Description
Prize Women: A Gripping Tale of Friendship and Survival In 1926, Toronto was a city of desperation, where women were forced to make impossible choices to survive. For Lily, fleeing a violent husband, the only hope was a kind stranger named Mae, who took her in and became her lifeline. But when a millionaire dies, his will sets off a chain of events that threatens to tear their friendship apart. The Great Stork Derby, a contest that could change one woman's life forever, becomes the focal point of a heart-wrenching struggle for survival. As the Great Depression bites, Lily and Mae must navigate a cruel world where men hold all the power. Will their friendship be strong enough to overcome the odds, or will the prize prove too great to resist? A profoundly moving and gripping novel about the choices women face, Prize Women is a testament to the strength and resilience of the human spirit.
