Inspired by the famous and charismatic leader of the group, Mrs. Amelia Price, Cecilia is eager to join the Union - if she can hide it from her parents, that is. But when Mrs. Price is found dead at the foot of the stairs of her home, her Votes for Women sash torn away, Cecilia knows she must attend to a more urgent matter - finding the killer. With the help of her lady's maid Jane and intelligent cat Jack, she hopes to play her part in earning women's equality by stopping the Union's dangerous foe"--Provided by publisher.

The Supreme Court : the personalities and rivalries that defined America / by Rosen, Jeffrey,1964-(CARDINAL)660414;

Douglas -- Two faces of conservatism : William H. Rehnquist and Antonin Scalia -- The future of temperament."The Supreme Court is the most mysterious branch of government, and yet it is at root a human institution, made up of very bright people with very strong egos, for whom political and judicial conflicts often become personal. In this character-driven history, Rosen recounts the history of the Court through the personal and philosophical rivalries on the bench that transformed the law--and by extension, our lives. Through these four rivalries, he brings to life the perennial conflict that has animated the Court--between those justices guided by strong ideology and those who forge coalitions and adjust to new realities.--From publisher description.
