Published in 1913, this controversial novel—banned for a time—featured the story of Mary O'Neill, a fallen woman ostracized by society for a sexual indiscretion. Caine's sympathetic portrait of his heroine was too much for Edwardian critics to stomach, but the public made the book one of the best selling of the author's illustrious career.
