Regency historical romance, narrated in full. Prudence Marsh was the poor cousin of the house, kept 9 years as unpaid help in her uncle's home, spoken of as though she were furniture. A fashionable young set decided it would be sport to have her invited to the Duke of Avonmere's first dinner, so they might watch her blunder among her betters.
What they did not know was that the Duke had been told exactly what the evening was meant to be. And Prudence, in her one plain gown, stepped over every trap they laid and never once raised her voice.
Then the Duke set down his glass, and rose, and did a thing that turned the whole evening on the people who had got it up.
