The third novel in Trollope's Palliser series, "The Eustace
Diamonds" bears all the hallmarks of his later works, blending dark
cynicism with humor and a keen perception of human nature.
Following the death of her husband, Sir Florian, beautiful Lizzie
Eustace mysteriously comes into possession of a hugely expensive
diamond necklace. She maintains it was a gift from her husband, but
the Eustace lawyers insist she give it up, and while her cousin
Frank takes her side, her new lover, Lord Fawn, declares that he
will only marry her if the necklace is surrendered. As gossip and
scandal intensify, Lizzie's truthfulness is thrown into doubt, and,
in her desire to keep the jewels, she is driven to increasingly
desperate acts.
