Lady Susan, uma obra epistolar curta, porém completa, conta a história de uma viúva sedutora e manipuladora de, aproximadamente, trinta e cinco anos de idade. Sua conduta é, aparentemente, irrepreensível, como se esperaria de uma perfeita dama. Dotada de grande beleza, com modos encantadores e supostamente sensíveis, ela consegue desarmar até mesmo aqueles que estão familiarizados com boatos sobre sua má reputação. A relação com a filha, Frederica, uma jovem tímida e submissa, parece ser destituída de qualquer afeição, pois a mãe a trata como mais uma peça em seu jogo maquiavélico, planejando casá-la contra a própria vontade. O livro é um convite ao interior da mente de uma mulher astuta e maliciosa, habituada a brincar com os sentimentos alheios sem nenhuma pitada de remorso.
