Three years ago, her husband stood accused of murder -- and the
verdict that came in from the jury was the Scottish Verdict, Not
Proven. The jury had not evidence enough to convict him -- nor
enough to comfortably exonerate him. ustace could not bear the
weight of her discovery; he fled to the continent, to live in
anonymity. But Valeria knew her husband, and she loved him. She
knew he was innocent, too, with the sort of intuition that guides
the lucky flawlessly. And she set out to prove it to the world.
Valeria Woodville is one of English literature's earliest women
detectives -- that makes the novel historically remarkable. But
it's also a great fun mystery, full of plot and circumsance, and a
rogue's gallery of odd Dickensian characters. The Law and the Lady
is as remarkable a novel today as it was when it was first
published in 1875.
