A Lost Lady

How light and alive she was! Like a bird caught in a net . . Marian Forrester enchants everyone around her: her husband, an elderly railroad pioneer, the small town of Sweet Water, and Niel Herbert, her unwavering confidant. Yet, her irresistible charm and dazzling wit conceal a dangerous vulnerability – and her greatest secret. A significant inspiration for The Great Gatsby, this exquisite novella is a poignant elegy for a bygone era, fading into history.
