About this book
Rainy New York streets provide Archer Trevlyn with pennies for sweeping muddy crossings, but a single white rose lies beyond his means. He wants it for his frail mother, whose memories of country flowers give the gift its meaning. A well dressed child, Margie Harrison, buys him a bouquet. When he returns home, his mother has died, and his fellow street sweeper Mat Miller offers him comfort and a place to stay.
Clara Augusta's The Fatal Glove moves from this childhood hardship into a troubled love story. Margaret Harrison later receives a disturbing account of Archer's past from Miss Lee and decides to break their engagement. A promise of secrecy prevents her from explaining her decision. Poverty, affection, suspicion and the pressure of keeping one's word shape a novel for readers drawn to emotional conflict and the fragile trust between lovers.
