Sublime Dignity

“Sister Margaret has a secret, but she’s not the only one. Karen Scolforo’s debut novel, Sublime Dignity, sizzles on the page as she unfolds a tale of desire, faith, hypocrisy, and gender inequity. Her look at the human failings within godly people takes the Catholic Church to task for all it tries to protect, no matter the cost. Above all, this is a story of strong women and the lengths to which they’ll go to protect their rights and their glorious call to service. Karen Scolforo has created memorable characters and a plot that will sweep you up in the complications of the human heart. I won’t soon forget this book.”

 --Lee Martin, author of the Pulitzer Prize Finalist, The Bright Forever
