A shadowed tale of reputation, duty, and the cost of ambition that lingers long after the last page. A sweeping Victorian drama where class, secrecy, and fragile honour collide with devastating consequence. Delaware; Or, The Ruined Family Vol. 2 unfolds as a meticulously wrought blend of historical romance and gothic fiction.

A shadowed tale of reputation, duty, and the cost of ambition that lingers long after the last page. A sweeping Victorian drama where class, secrecy, and fragile honour collide with devastating consequence. Delaware; Or, The Ruined Family Vol. 2 unfolds as a meticulously wrought blend of historical romance and gothic fiction. Across drawing rooms and winding corridors, inheritance and fortune stir loyalty and betrayal, while moral conflict tests hearts and minds. It is a novel of manners with a pulse of Edgar Allan Poe's mood and Wilkie Collins' intricate plots - a study in character under pressure and a portrait of a society where every whisper can alter a family's fate. Readers will savour the sharp social observation, the atmospheric tension, and the brisk clarity of Rainsford James's prose, brought into sharp relief for modern taste. A note on literary and historical significance: this work sits firmly in the tradition of late-Victorian high drama, offering a rich lens on class, gender, and the pressures of reputation. It rewards both casual readers seeking a gripping historical romance and classic-literature collectors desiring a carefully curated edition. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions, it is restored for today's readers and for future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure that invites thoughtful discussion and enduring enjoyment.
