Haggard’s tenth novel, published in 1890, is a change of pace: a tale of scandalous love in Victorian London. Beatrice is an unmarried Welsh schoolteacher. Geoffrey, a barrister, is very much married, but unhappily so. They feel a deep psychic connection—but can that protect them from Geoffrey’s social-climbing wife and Beatrice’s ruthless suitor?
