Synopsis

As if she were involved in a miming play, Marielle watched the two groups clowning and bargaining --gold coins being offered, scorned, accepted.... Only afterward did she learn that she had participated in a Romany wedding. Now, Marielle Moore was a Romany wife obliged to obey her husband--Rom Boro, leader of the gypsy tribe in all things. "I will not tolerate being bought like an article across a shop counter," she declared angrily. But after all, what could she do? Her life depended on Rom!
