"A Noble Woman" is a suspension novel by Ann S. Stephens, the prominent author of dime novels in the United States of the 19th century. The book tells the story of a newlywed couple living with the husband's younger sister. The very first pages introduce the tension between the characters. It's obvious they share the secret, yet it's not clear whose secret is and what it is about. This book is a real page-turner perfect for those who want to forget about daily troubles and dive completely into the imagery world for an evening of relaxation.
