Summary
Produced in New York and made into the very successful musical motion picture, "Three Daring Daughters." Louise Morgan, chic Park Avenue matron and divorcee, returns from a trip to Mexico with a husband and a problem. She must break the news to her three girls who are romantically attached to their foreign-correspondent father. He had deserted the family, but nevertheless remains a symbol of glamor for the girls. Tack Cooper, Louise's husband, attempts to cooperate by "getting on the good side" of the girls before the news is revealed. But the girls suspect him of dark and ulterior motives. Tess. the eldest, decides that only by winning him away from her mother can she save her mother from this interloper! One by one, the children learn that Tack is the new head of the house. How they take it, and what ensues, is a family "earthquake" which shakes up the Morgans considerably.
