Wives and Lovers — Margaret Millar

TEMPTRESS IN TOWN

Gordon Foster's activities took a sudden bounce off the track of his daily pattern of staid middle-class living when a girl asked him for a match in the lobby of a San Francisco hotel.

In a matter of weeks, the girl, Ruby, followed Gordon home to Channel City and turned his once peaceful marriage upside down. And Gordon's wife--a fiercely virtuous woman--found that she must fight with everything she had to hold her husband. Yet Gordon wasn't the only man whose affections Ruby aroused--and Gordon's wife wasn't the only woman in Channel City who was threatened by her.


A day of reckoning was approaching for Ruby--and for Channel City.
