Hugely popular and serialized three times before publication in book form, The Hidden Hand (1888) is an exuberant comic melodrama featuring fearless Capitola Black, a self-styled female Don Quixote, and the prototype of innumerable adventure heroines. Rescued from life on the streets in New York by a southern plantation owner, Capitola is too adventurous to settle for the life of a southern belle and proceeds to tackle evil-doers in the neighbourhood: conducting heroic rescues, capturing bandits and fighting duels. The Hidden Hand is at heart an action comedy with a female lead that exudes high-spirited cheer and retains the capacity to surprise and delight that enchanted its earliest audience.
