AbstractHistoryArchive Description

Twenty-one-year-old Harriet, a newly qualified X-ray technician earning a coveted male wage, ignores her father's warning that 'only fools, Bohemians and tarts live at Kings Cross' and moves into Mrs Delvecchio Schwartz's rooming house. There she discovers that Mrs Delvecchio Schwartz has more sources of income than rents. She finds casting horoscopes, reading tarot cards, and gazing into her crystal ball to be far more profitable! But it is mute four-year-old Flo - her mother's medium and beloved angel puss - who captures Harriet's heart. As she learns about men, love, and tarot cards, Harriet finds that following your heart is not always easy. And protecting those you care for most can be hardest of all. (Source: Trove)
