Sue gives the reader a tale of prostitutes and the middle class, violence, and compassion. Sue also wrote another multi-volume work The Wandering Jew. An excerpt reads, 'The surprised lapidary rose and opened the door. Two men entered the garret. One of them was tall and thin with a face mean and pimpled surrounded by thick grayish whiskers, he held in his hand a stout loaded cane and wore a shapeless hat and a large green greatcoat covered with mud and buttoned close up to the neck, the black velvet collar much worn exposed to view his long bare red throat which resembled a vulture?s.'
