  • Cornelia Sorabji, trailblazing Indian women’s rights campaigner
  • Shirley Chisholm, the first female US presidential candidate


And as she researches the lives of these ground-breaking women, Kate embarks on a detective story to uncover a forgotten literary superstar in her own family, reflecting the desire of so many people to trace their own roots . . .
