Product Description
From dust jacket flap:
Rachael Rosing, the beautiful, calculating, ambitious girl who figured in "Shabby Tiger" is the heroine of this novel. It is the story of her marriage to a wealthy middle-aged Jew, her growing infatuation for the son of a peer, her career as an actress and the swift unexpected stroke which deprives her of fame when it is just within her reach.
The theme is, in brief, the heartlessness of a lovely woman who was found to have a streak of genius; her trampling of human affection underfoot in order that her genius might fulfil itself; and the "act of fate" which intervened when she seemed set fair for a soulless triumph to send her plunging to disaster.
A "must read" captivating novel..
