The Actress' Daughter

The gripping romance novel "The Actress' Daughter" contains many of the elements that contributed to Fleming's popular acclaim: strong female characters, complex plot twists, and plenty of shadowy intrigue. Miss Jerusha, being frightfully sensible, as ladies of a certain age always are, looked upon all works of fiction with a steady contempt too intense for words; and therefore Robinson Crusoe had remained as unmolested on the table as he had in his sea-girt island from the day a deluded friend had presented it to her until the present hour.
