The Naked Ladies Read the Quran

<p>Merida Tanner was happy with a first grandchild on the way a loving husband healthy parents and a successful brother who wasn't causing problems at the moment. Her teaching at the college was going well. Her responsibilities as vice-president of the Naked Ladies book group didn't usually require her to be up front. Anti-Islamic sentiment was growing after the 9/11 attacks but her Muslim brother-in-law and Muslim friends weren't being threatened. Life was good...<br> Until it wasn't. Until she was asked to lead a committee at the college. Until she was drafted into leadership in the Naked Ladies. Until the Quran went onto the 2002-2003 reading list. Until an unexpected death. Until her little brother started acting like the most domineering man-of-the-family ever. Until people she cared about were threatened. ...<br> Until Merida had to choose how to respond how to step up and use her power how to be happy all over again. </p>
