An exciting period suspense novel, in which a beautiful and mysterious woman, posing as a widow for the sake of "propriety," apparently quite ignorant of the ways of the world, must confront and overcome the powerful and the criminally-minded by the strength of her own virtue. When originally published, the theme of this book was described as "Stupendous and absorbing -- the irresistible force of purity and innocence against the supposedly impassible barrier of personfied evil."
Includes a new introduction by literary scholar Darrell Schweitzer.
