This miniseries is an adaptation and although it doesn't follow the second book completely it is not a major motion picture so the writers have to go the direction that fits best with the first book in this form. Essentially the second segment is about finding out who Lili's (Elizabeth)father is and getting Judy back when she is kidnapped after she goes to see a rebel leader. I didn't get the feeling that no one cared about Judy at all. They didn't want to openly state she had been kidnapped for fear it would jeopardize her life and none of the women had enough money to pay the ransom.
Lili, Pagan and Maxine go to each of the men they suspect to have raped Judy to extort money from them for the ransom. The rebel leader falls in love with Judy. Ultimately she gets released and after Lili reads all three versions of a chapter within a book Judy had written about Lucinda Lace, that was never published, it is revealed who the father actually is. In the end, Lili does not say who her real father is and says it is one of the men who had died. It would have been devastating for the actual father considering his position in life.
I liked this adaptation of the second book as well as the adaptation of the first book. It fit well as far as continuity to the first miniseries. I preferred the new actress in the part of Judy as well. She seemed to fit the character much better. Too bad they didn't use her the first time. This was a very good miniseries and I recommend it to anyone who likes romance stories with twists.
