Description
An astonishing discovery! Available for the first time in 125 years, the Lost Novels Of Nellie Bly! Pioneering undercover journalist Nellie Bly is rightly famous for exposing society's ills. From brutal insane asylums to corrupt politicians, she used the pages of the New York World to bring down all manner of frauds, cheats, and charlatans. What no one knows is that Nellie Bly was also a novelist. Because, of the twelve novels Bly wrote between 1889 and 1895, eleven have been lost - until now! Newly discovered by author David Blixt (What Girls Are Good For, The Master Of Verona), Nellie Bly's lost works of fiction are available for the first time! These are The Lost Novels of Nellie Bly! A Female Reporter Tracking A $500,000 Robbery! Setting out to solve the bold robbery of a half million dollars in diamonds, playboy and man-about-town Lionel Dangerfield—known as “The Danger”—finds himself in competition with Ruby Sharpe, daring young reporter for the New York Planet. The millionaire amateur detective sets out to trace the lowest characters who inhabit New York’s night life. From trap-doors to gambling halls to a race at sea, The Danger hunts for the cheerfully mysterious young thief known as Admiral Great to find out the truth behind the robbery and recover the stolen gems. Attempting to steal a march on police detective Murray Hazard, Lionel and Ruby warily share information. Their mutual attraction is shattered when Lionel discovers that Ruby knows more than she is telling about the case. But a lead to the identity of the thieves is not the only secret Ruby Sharpe hides! Will The Danger solve the case before Ruby can steal the story—and his heart? Together they will brave the dangers of . . . New York By Night! Extra feature: includes her New York World articles Bly used for inspiration!
