Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is the first volume of a series following the adventures of Evelyn Van Courtland, a headstrong woman entering womanhood in 1890s New York. With a strong will and a mind far ahead of her time, Evelyne insists upon independence within polite society and becomes embroiled in a scandalous murder case. The author places Evelyn within the strictures of high society and the expectations for women at the end of the nineteenth century. Van Courtland's fierce spirit and independence cause tension, even within her well-to-do family, and her world becomes further complicated when she discovers secrets within her own family after the murder of a prominent banker. This book offers a delightful historical mystery that examines the themes of independence, the role of women in the 19th century, and the ways in which we often keep secrets from those closest to us.
