Mrs. Whitney turns from the comfortable daughters of her earlier books to the other girls: young women who must earn their keep in the city. Spilled out of one lodging and into another, they share rooms, train journeys, summer heat and hard times, sustained by the plain faith of the indomitable Luclarion Grapp and by friendships across class lines.
