An astonishing discovery! Available for the first time in 125 years, the Lost Novels Of Nellie Bly!

Pioneering undercover journalist Nellie Bly is rightly famous for exposing society's ills. From brutal insane asylums to corrupt politicians, she used the pages of the New York World to bring down all manner of frauds, cheats, and charlatans.

Sixteen year-old orphan Christmas Cherry escapes from the foster home on Blackwell's Island without a friend in the world. On Christmas Day, her birthday, she wanders New York in search of shelter and a job.

Unknown to Christmas, she shares a birthday with wealthy, petted, and proud Amor Escandon, who has also run away after witnessing her beloved father commit a terrible crime.

Christmas finds a protector in handsome George Chesterland. But no sooner does he promise her a job than he's forced to dive into the Hudson River and save Amor from drowning as she attempts to commit suicide.

To Christmas' dismay, he is clearly smitten with Amor's beauty. Together Christmas and Amor accept shelter in the home of a poor cabdriver and his family, only to find a bitter foe in the cabbie's daughter, Lillian Day. All three long for George Chesterland's love, but he only has eyes for the haughty Amor.
