A period drama centering the power struggle for Queen Anne's throne
involving a poor young man and the two disparate figures eager to
take her place. An unsuspecting hero is roped into an insidious
plot that is much more than he bargained for. Harry Boyce is an
upstanding man who is poor but very bright. His father was a local
scoundrel who failed to provide any stability or positive
direction. Despite negative influences, Harry maintains a good
heart. When he sees a woman and her servant being attacked on the
road, he quickly comes to their aid. This sparks a whirlwind
romance that's thwarted by the sudden return of Harry's devious
father. His arrival coincides with two prominent men fighting for
Queen Anne's throne. The Highwayman is a captivating but rare novel
from H.C. Bailey. Originally published in 1915, the story balances
its unsavory villains with a good-hearted hero. There's also a
thrilling romance, melodrama and a touch of unexpected humor. With
an eye-catching new cover, and professionally typeset manuscript,
this edition of The Highwayman is both modern and readable.
