The Gold that Glitters

Publisher Description

This is a historical novel. 'Jenny, my dear maid, thou wilt never fetch white meal out of a sack of sea-coal. ' Jenny tossed her head. It would have been a nice little brown head, if it had not been quite so fond of tossing itself. But Jenny was just sixteen, and laboured under a delusion which besets young folks of that age—namely, that half the brains in the world had got into her head, and very few had been left in her grandmother’s. 'I don’t know what you mean, Grandmother, ' said Jenny, as an accompaniment to that toss. 'O Jenny, Jenny! what a shocking thing of you to say, when you knew what your grandmother meant as well as you knew your name was Jane Lavender'.
