Inspired by True Events

In a world where a woman’s worth is measured by her obedience, Ann has always played her part – quiet, dutiful, invisible. The perfect wife.

Until she becomes a widow. Now her brother-in-law wants her gone – off the island, out of the family business, and separated from her sons. Determined to keep what remains of her life intact, Ann refuses to disappear. Instead, she steps into a future she was never meant to claim. With the help of an unlikely circle of allies, Ann fights to free her son from Mount Cashel Orphanage and build a new life in wartime St. John’s. At her side is Maureen, her fierce and cunning sister-in-law, a woman betrayed by her own family and driven to reclaim what is rightfully hers.

Together, they face a ruthless enemy – the very family that seeks to control them – and discover a strength neither knew they possessed.

A resonant story of courage, loyalty, and defiance, A Respectable Woman asks: how far will a woman go to claim her life – and who decides what makes her respectable?

About Flanker Press
Turning pages since 1994

Flanker Press is a bright spark in the Newfoundland and Labrador publishing scene. As the province’s most active publisher of trade books, the company now averages twenty new titles per year, with a heavy emphasis on regional non-fiction and historical fiction.

The mission of Flanker Press is to provide a quality publishing service to the local and regional writing community and to actively promote its authors and their books in Canada and abroad.

Now located in Paradise, Flanker Press has grown from a part-time venture in 1994 to a business with eight full-time employees. In the fall of 2004, Flanker Press launched a new imprint, Pennywell Books. This imprint includes literary fiction, short stories, young adult fiction, and children’s books.
