Description

At Highcourt, Grace Trevanion endures a dying husband’s threats while Rosalind watches night errands, gossip, and a stranger at the door. Loyalty and doubt share one household as the lawyer is summoned and affection becomes a trial. Spoken domestic suspense: authority, a covered crime, and a stepdaughter who will not look away.

Author

Margaret Oliphant (1828–1897) was a Scottish novelist who wrote as if the rent depended on it — because it often did. Widowed young, she supported a large household with novels, biographies, reviews, and stories of the seen and unseen, becoming one of the Victorian age's most tireless professionals. Domestic realism, historical fiction, and ghostly tales all came from the same steady pen.
