The Wisteria Society of Lady Scoundrels
«India's debut is charming, clever, action-packed, with masterful bantering-while-dueling choreography: it reminds me of The Princess Bride, except swoonier and more fantastical. It's an instant beloved favorite.»
Sarah Hogle, author of You Deserve Each Other
