Nancy 'Nance' Olden, a young and very pretty woman, is an accomplished liar and thief. Raised in a horrific orphanage, called the Cruelty by its occupants, Nance and her criminal boyfriend, Tom Dorgan, are pulling a con when the book begins. The results of their act propel Nance into a series of events that she could never have imagined. This was Miriam Michelson's first novel and it was considered a 'blockbuster' in its day. Ranked fourth on the list of bestsellers of 1904 by "Publishers Weekly," Michelson's book was a source of controversy due to the dubious ethics and morals of its heroine.

Growing up a hard life as an orphan, Nancy Olden falls into the wrong crowd and a life of crime. She's quick on her feet and quick with her tongue, talking herself out of trouble most of the time. Through a series of misadventures (she's not THAT successful a con artist, really), she begins to rely on the kindness of strangers and slowly straightens her life out. She has only one last scam to play in order to help those who have helped her. Will Nancy be able to save the day? Or will this be the job to finally send her up the river to the big house?I was surprised at how much I enjoyed this book. Published in 1904, Nancy Olden isn't your typical heroine of the age. Author Miriam Michelson has created a strong, smart, clever fighter of a character who doesn't lament "Oh woe is me, someone save me" like many other female characters written from this generation. I can't stand wimps and have no time for fools. I wonder if there was a movie made from this book.
