The Heiress of Black Cliff
About this drama
The source for this entry is a synopsis of 734 characters in three sentences, and one transcription fact comes first: the three curly apostrophes, in mother's, in Ashford's, and in cliff's, are transcribed straight. What the source states: Eileen Leighton is the true heiress of the Leighton estate at Sea Cliff, yet her stepmother Rowena and the impostor Vera stole her mother's White Star necklace and falsely accused her of being a mad, arsonist, and parricidal daughter of low birth; on the day of the engagement party, Vera wore the necklace that rightfully belonged to Eileen and stole Duke Lucien Ashford's hand in marriage, then deliberately cut her own arm and tore her sleeve, falsely accusing Eileen of pushing her to the edge of the cliff; everyone expected Eileen to fall and confess her guilt, but she managed to grab hold of a rock carving at the cliff's edge and discovered the first clue her mother had left behind, the printed line, the true heir must return from Sea Cliff. The premise is one dispossessed heiress and one inherited clue, and the source closes at the moment of discovery, so no ending is stated, the return unwritten. Three catalog facts frame the entry.
