Brilliant, corseted, and haunted by spirits from the Borderlands, Ida Craddock is outraged by unmarried women's lack of knowledge about what happens in the marriage bed.
Turning her back on the constrictions of Victorian society, Ida strikes out on her own, becoming a mystic marriage counselor. Sharing what she views as essential sexual knowledge puts her in the crosshairs of Anthony Comstock, the nation's Anti-Obscenity Postal Inspector.
He promises to silence her forever. She vows to bring him down. With prison looming, Ida and her angel lover must prepare for a battle they may not be able to win.
CENSORED ANGEL is based on the life of mystic marriage counselor and First Amendment defender, Ida C. Craddock, the woman who helped bring down Anthony Comstock, of Comstock Law infamy, and whose defense led to the formation of the Free Speech league, antecedent of the ACLU.
