She has seen failure. She is determined to have success. Her mother is stunningly beautiful. Her father is the handsome son of a rich landowner. She should have been born into a life of wealth and comfort. But in a few short years her parents have squandered a fortune, and realises that she will have to make her own way in the world, make her own money - and succeed in a Victorian society which frowns on successful women. A magnificent novel of a Victorian family - and one woman in particular - this is a story both of failure and of success, of foolishness and determination.
