Keziah Simmons spends her days at Miss Wakefields Academy wondering if she is destined to be bored by everything in life. She is caught between her politically radical father and a mother desperate to see her make a good marriage. After breaking her engagement to the richest guy in town, Keziah heads to Atlanta to become a milliner. There she discovers shocking working conditions, an emerging suffragist movement, and a potential soul mate, Jack. But success-oriented Keziah must discover her authentic identity before she can offer her talents to the marching women and heal her relationships. Keziahs story takes place against a background of sweeping change in the South and complex race relations within the suffrage movement. Denton also illuminates an era when fashion was woven into the domestic arts and became a vehicle for womens creativity.
