About This Book

A young woman comes into a modest legacy and embarks on a series of social and romantic adventures, presiding over lively parties and attracting a dashing but impulsive young man called Ginger. Comic misunderstandings, professional setbacks, and family interventions — including an outspoken uncle and a returning old acquaintance — complicate her plans, prompting impulsive departures, letters that alter loyalties, and schemes to lay ghosts from the past. The narrative combines witty observations about success and society with episodic farce, personal reckoning, and a reconciliatory conclusion.
