Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Three years ago, her husband stood accused of murder -- and the verdict that came in from the jury was the Scottish Verdict, Not Proven. The jury had not evidence enough to convict him -- nor enough to comfortably exonerate him. Eustace could not bear the weight of her discovery; he fled to the continent, to live in anonymity. But Valeria knew her husband, and she loved him. She knew he was innocent, too, with the sort of intuition that guides the lucky flawlessly. And she set out to prove it to the world.

Download The Law and the Lady (法律與淑女) PDF Full Free by Wilkie Collins and published by Hyweb Technology Co. Ltd.. This book was released on 2011-05-15 with total page 57 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: William Wilkie Collins (1824-1889) was an English novelist and playwright, best known for The Woman in White and The Moonstone. A less sensational detective story is The Law and the Lady, in which new bride Valeria soon suspects her husband of having a secret past and a false identity. The novel attacks the Scottish Not Proven verdict, and is an early example of a female sleuth, a determined and resourceful woman who retains the initiative throughout.

Download The Law and the Lady Volume 1 PDF Full Free by Wilkie Collins and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-06-08 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Law and the Lady Volume 1 By Wilkie Collins Valeria Woodville's first act as a married woman is to sign her name in the marriage register incorrectly, and this slip is followed by the gradual disclosure of a series of secrets about her husband's earlier life, each of which leads on to another set of questions and enigmas. Her discoveries prompt her to defy her husband's authority, to take the law into into a labyrinthine maze of false clues and deceptive identities, in which the exploration of the tangled workings of the mind becomes linked to an investigation into the masquerades of femininity. Probably the first full-length novel with a woman detective as its heroine, The Law and the Lady is a fascinating example of Collins's later fiction. First published in 1875, it employs many of the techniques used in The Moonstone, developing them in bizarre and unexpected ways, and in its Gothic and fantastic elements The Law and the Lady adds a significant dimension to the history of detective fiction.
