The Heart Line' explores old San Francisco's heights and its depths, the elegance and wealth of Nob Hill and the noisy, kaleidoscopic tinctures of the Barbary Coast. In this setting Francis Granthope, Fancy Gray, Clytie Payson, the monstrous Madam Spoil and the devious Doctor Masterson weave their tapestry of purity and debasement, adoration and hatred, loyalty and treachery, charity and greed. 'The Heart Line' was Gelett Burgess's heartbroken elegy to the city he had come to love - and that no longer was.
