In the Company of Like-Minded Women explores the complexities of bonds between sisters and family at the start of the 20th century when women struggled to determine their future and the ';New Woman' demanded an equal voice. Three sisters are reunited in 1901 Denver following a family rift many years before. Each sister faces critical decisions regarding love, work, and the strength of her convictions. The story is set against the backdrop of the womens suffrage movement. Colorado led the nation by approving the womens vote in 1893, a full twenty seven years before the 19th U.S. Constitutional Amendment gave this right to women across America.
