Young Caroline Sanford, the granddaughter of the ironic observer of American morals Charles Schuyler from the novel “1876” and the daughter of the femme fatale Emma and the millionaire Sanford from the same novel, comes to New York from Paris to take over her inheritance rights. However, her half-brother Blaise Sanford claims that she will receive her share only in six years. He himself, working at Hearst's newspaper, dreams of going into the newspaper business. But Caroline is ahead of him... This novel plot unfolds against the backdrop of acute events at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries. There are a lot of real historical characters in the book. In addition to McKinley, Roosevelt and Hearst, the portraits of Secretary of State John Hay, the writer Henry James, and the historian Henry Adams, the grandson and great-grandson of two Adams presidents, are beautifully painted. Having settled opposite the White House, he skeptically observes its inhabitants, knowing that he himself will never live there...
