Upright Women Wanted

Upright women wanted / Sarah Gailey, 176 pgs.

Esther witnesses the hanging of her lover and then her dad arranges a marriage with her dead lover's fiance.  Esther realizes it is best to get out of dodge.  She stows away in the wagon of the traveling librarians.  When she is discovered, she also discovers a world of queer librarian spies who are working against the regime that her father represents.  She feels at home but isn't immediately accepted. In the tough surroundings she needs to earn her keep, learning to fight, fire guns and ride horseback. An entertaining story.
