She held the Fate of Kingdoms in her hand. She was only a will of the wisp girl, a bes pangled cashier in a cafe on the Franco-German burder. But she was destined for bigger things. Fate took her from her tiny world of hundrum and threw her into a whirlpool of govern, ment intrigue and diplomacy. The hearts, hopes and lives of hundreds were with her.
But her master. big tawny blustering brute of a man-mistreated her. Naturally she found a haven in the friendship of strangers, and meeting an artist who sees in her eyes & "soul" as clean as a fame she trusts him.
Robert W. Chamber's greatest novel, aa & film drama, will hold you by its realism, colour and charm.
