Higharade From Cobalt Library VICTORINE By Frances Parkinson Keys In her latest novel, Mrs. Keys re- turns to: southwest Louisiana -- Crowley "'the rice capital-of Am- erica', and nearby Lafayette, fa- mous for it's camellias, azaleas, superb cuisine and French atmos- phere, to tell the warm and moving story of Prosper Villac and Vic- torine LaBranche. Victorine and her father Moise, who is in retirement after an illus- trious career in the International fashion world, return to the mag- nificent estate Moise had built for his now estranged wife. Victorine a beautiful self-willed girl had heretofore divided her time be tween travel and sojourns in New York and large continental cities. Major adjustnrents are perforce indicated, but Moise tries to con- vinee Victorine that the regional life of the Deep South is an en- chanting as well as important part of' her heritage. He is therefore greatly pleased when a _ chance meeting between Victorine and Prosper results in an immediate attraction. He remembers. with special respect and . admiration Prosper's grandfather, Brent Win- slow, known as the "Burbank of Rice" and Prosper's- mother Li- vinia, who was tragically widowed when her husband, Claud Villac, was accidently shot by his cousin Felix, who then committed suicide. To Moise it seems that Prosper, his lovely sister Anne Marie, and the friends who form their imme- diate circle will make ideal com- panions for his beloved daughter. Prosper, a handsome, likeable, cocksure young man who manages one of the rice mills which his mother controls, is intrigued with the dazzling outsider, but he is al- ready infatuated with Titine, the provocative accordian player in the local dance hall, and has _ indis- creetly given her a pair of golden slippers in the hope of winning her favour. Besides,- both he and Vic- torine are quick tempered. The difference in their background and their conflicting view points in- tensify the friction between them. Their romance is a stormy one, and some time elapses before they come to the realization that their love is strong enough to overcome these basic differences. Then at the very moment they decide to an- nounce their engagement a tele- phone call brings the news of a horrible accident -- possibly mur- der -- at the Claudia Mill. Titine has been found dead in a rice bin, wearing golden slippers. Prosper is immediately involved as a suspect, along with several others, and before the murder is solved the lives of many- people in the community are affected. But through it all Victorine stands by Prosper, her love for him and her faith in him are unfaltering. Again Mrs. Keys has written a vital story which has Louisiana as it's setting and is also permeated with an element of mystery com- parable to the one which made DINNER AT ANTOINE'S such an overwhelming success.
