Description

Frances, the oldest of two sisters, feels constantly overshadowed by her younger sister, Evelyn. Frances meets Oliver Fayre, an extremely handsome man that her aunt tries to set her up with. It seems to be going well, then one day Oliver stops by to visit Frances, sees beautiful Evelyn and forgets that Frances exists. One of the four "contemporary" novels Georgette Heyer had suppressed.

All of them so good, but Evelyn really so very -- Quite remarkable! Such an actress!"
