"Suppose I show you how to marry a fortune. Will you cancel my gambling debts?" Arthur asked. "Depends on your scheme," the other man replied. "Who is the target? Your sister?" Arthur's lips curled in scorn. "Hardly. She's my brother's daughter - eighteen, beautiful, and heiress to a fortune all her own. And she is alone this summer with only a crazy old aunt as her guardian." —back of the book
