Book
Mrs. Gulliver : a novel / Valerie Martin.
"It's 1954 on far-flung Verona Island, a tropical paradise with a fragile economy and a rising crime rate. Prostitution is legal and Lila Gulliver is proud of her business, a high-end brothel where her clients are guaranteed privacy and discretion. When Carita Bercy, a young, destitute, and beautiful blind woman arrives at her door seeking employment, Lila decides to give her a chance. Carita proves a valuable asset to the house, as well as a psychological puzzle to her employer. One hot night, Ian Drohan, a handsome youth and the scion of the wealthiest family on the island, visits Lila's house and falls madly in love with Carita. Lila doubts his sincerity and fears for Carita's future. Carita has no such fears. In fact, Carita is a reckless force of nature, determined to succeed in ways Lila hasn't even contemplated." -- Provided by publisher.
