From the publisher
From the rear cover
At Selwoode, a country house in England built by the wealthy industrialist and financier Frederick R. Woods, the young Margaret Hugonin, who stands to inherit her late uncle's fortune, lives under the shadow of the family's heraldic eagle. As daily incursions by greed-driven suitors get in the way of her one true love, Margaret is haunted by a wealth built on the suffering of others. The Eagle's Shadow is a romantic comedy that satirizes the classic marriage plot while providing a sharp cultural critique at a time when quickly made fortunes were changing America, and the world, forever.
