About This Book
The narrative follows Doris, whose father, serving as trustee, betrays a trust and precipitates the ruin of the Cameron family and the jeopardy of her beloved Bernard's prospects. Confronted by Mrs. Cameron's accusations, Doris faces social censure, poverty, and painful moral choices; she seeks work, forms alliances with women such as Alice Sinclair, resists temptations, and endures separations while Bernard searches for her. Subsequent developments involve renunciation, a welcome legacy, interventions that avert final disaster, restitution, and a wedding that reconciles the principal characters and restores moral and financial balance.
