OLDER FICTION
Sullivan, Laura L.

Ladies in Waiting

(4) YA Three young women--Zabby, Eliza, and Beth--serve as maids of honor to the unhappy Queen Catherine of England. One pursues science, one the theater, and one love, but all are caught up in the sexual philandering and political machinations of King Charles II's shamelessly libertine court. Anachronistic characterizations and convenient plot developments strain credulity but enable plenty of fast-paced adventures.
