Friends and Relations

By Mira Stables

“You have been a good and dutiful daughter to me and the least I can do is put you into possession of the facts… You are not my daughter.”

With those words Mrs. Tracy gave lovely Charmian the shock of her life.

The news that she was a nameless waif, unclaimed after an accident in which her nurse had died, turned Charmian’s dreams of the future to ashes. What chance would she have in society?

Though without a name, Charmian did possess a great deal of beauty and a swift intelligence. She would set out to find a family and a name of her own. Suddenly, she knew exactly how she would do it…

But everything in life is subject to change, as Charmian would soon discover…
