"The Medicine Woman of Galveston" by Amanda Skenandore tells the story of Dr. Tucia Hatherley, a former medical trailblazer, who joins a traveling medicine show to support her disabled son. Trapped by her debts and the showman Huey's control, Tucia navigates a world of "snake oil" cures and deception. When the show reaches Galveston, the impending hurricane of 1900 forces Tucia to confront her past, the nature of her new companions, and the possibility of a new life.
