The Nun's Dowry
Anguish and intrigue behind the cold stone walls of Saint Therese's monastery lead to a man's quest for truth amongst the Creole elite of New Orleans. Robin Christopher, a flawed young lawyer who spends too much time stoking his already swollen libido, finally falls in love, but the woman in question, Ariadne Alencon, leaves him to join an order of nuns. Stunned, Robin sets out to reclaim her from the Church, and becomes enmeshed in the affairs of her aristocratic family. The truth about what happened at Saint Therese's and the corruption behind it are revealed in the final climactic courtroom scene.
