Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Jungle Girl
Mrs. Norton looked contentedly at her image in the long mirror which reflected a graceful figure in a well cut grey habit and smart long brown boots, a pretty face and wavy auburn hair under the sun-helmet. Then turning away and picking up her whip she left her dressing-room and, passing the door of her husband's bedroom where he lay still sleeping, descended the broad marble staircase of the Residency to the lofty hall, where an Indian Servant in a long red coat hurried to open the door of the dining-room for her.
