Frank Merriwell's New Comedian; Or, The Rise of a Star
Frank Merriwell's New Comedian; Or, The Rise of a Star
The morning after his play dies on stage, Frank Merriwell wakes in Pueblo, Colorado, to sunshine that feels like mockery. For Old Eli has crashed in flames. Lines were forgotten, his best scenes collapsed, and rival sabotage turned opening night into a public execution. Now the curtain has fallen on his dreams, his backer has fled, and enemies circle like vultures waiting for the corpse. But Merriwell refuses to stay down. A letter reveals the treachery that brought him low. An old friend arrives with unexpected news. And buried treasure from an earlier adventure promises one last chance at the life he's fought for. The stage is set for a comeback. This is turn-of-the-century American adventure fiction at its purest: a story about resilience against impossible odds, about the theater world's cutthroat politics, about a hero who simply will not quit.
