Her Father’s Name

Her Father's Name by Florence MarryatFirst published as a novel in 1876, Her Father’s Name is the sensational story of Leona Lacoste, a pistol-toting young woman who embarks upon a quest to clear the name of her late father. The compelling plot combines murder, mystery, cross-dressing, illegitimacy, amateur sleuthing, and hysteria.

This new edition, edited by Dr Greta Depledge, features an introduction, contextual notes and additional material.
