Produktbeschreibung
A gripping tale of trust, danger, and retribution that lingers long after the final page. A knot of secrets tightens around a baroque, shadowed London, where appearances bend and allegiances shift with every rumour. The Betrayal Of John Fordham reasserts the fevered logic of Victorian sensation fiction with a modern, accessible confidence. This restored edition reveals the novel's precise moral architecture, its brisk plotting, and its keen social critique: betrayal and revenge play out against a sharp social class commentary, where illegitimacy and guilt threaten reputations as surely as any foe. The result is period drama fiction that rewards both page-turning suspense and serious reflection, inviting classic literature readers and academic study readers alike into a vivid nineteenth century Britain. Alpha Editions brings back a work long out of print, carefully restored for today's audience and for future generations. More than a reprint, this edition is a collector's item and a cultural treasure, a touchstone for those tracing the evolution of gothic crime fiction parallels and the enduring power of a Victorian London setting. For lovers of B L Farjeon novels and for readers seeking a compelling, morally conscious narrative, this volume offers an enriching, dramatically satisfying experience that sits proudly on any bookshelf.
