Identity is an interesting thing. You can know who you think you are and still be quite uninformed, as Lillian Doyle learns in The Swindler’s Daughter. As the daughter of a widowed Atlanta socialite, Lillian is expected to marry well and secure the future for herself and her mother. However, Lillian finds that her mother had not been widowed by her father all these years; he has been quite alive, at least, he was until recently. Now the sole heiress of her father’s estate, Lillian is sent to secure her inheritance and return to Atlanta to marry a nice enough man, with whom she supposes she will have a nice enough life. But arriving in the small town where her father once lived, Lillian is faced with opportunities she could only dream about under the weight of social expectation, and the choices before her could allow Lillian to be who she chooses to be.
In The Swindler’s Daughter, Stephenia H. McGee writes historical romance with a bit of intrigue. Questions swirl as hopes and futures collide, making messes of people’s plans and opening the door for God’s plan for each of the characters. There are misunderstandings and mischief aplenty, moving the story toward a tidy ending.
