About the novelettes:
The She-Wolf Gardening Club of Edinburgh
Unruly plants, weeds and women. Is this a recipe to shuffle dramatic change into the ancient city of Edinburgh? As a motley group of gardening women set things in motion, some ridiculous surprises emerge. At the library, the universities and the homes and gardens of the people of Edinburgh, Scotland’s capital. Will they be ready? Or even notice?
The Leopardess School of Colombo
Something highly unusual is creeping into the tropical city of Colombo in Sri Lanka. It is indomitable, almost invisible and may catch some people unawares. Daring women are on a mission with fire in their hearts, ready to ruffle a feather or two. Or maybe lots and lots of feathers.
