She faces opposition from rival stevedores and labor union delegates who are jealous of her success. The novel portrays her resilience and determination in the face of blackmail, arson, and attempted murder. The book was serialized in The Century Magazine and later published by Houghton Mifflin Harcourt. It received positive reviews and was praised for its portrayal of a strong female protagonist.
