This is an absolutely amazing story about a young woman, Annie Trimble, who is an outcast in her hometown because the citizens (and her parents) do not realize she is deaf, not an idiot. When a wealthy young man rapes Annie, he doesn't believe anyone will understand what has happened, or blame him.

However, one of the other men with Douglas Montgomery tells her parents; Mr. Trimble notifies Alex Montgomery, the older brother. After Alex throws his brother out of the house for his actions, he offers to marry Annie. Her parents reluctantly agree.

Then begins this enthralling story of how Alex falls in love with Annie and learns that she is deaf. Fortunately, Alex is wealthy and can spend the money and time to help Annie come into her own as a person. First class entertainment.
