As We Forgive Them (1904) is a mystery novel by Anglo-French writer
William Le Queux. Published at the height of Le Queux's career as a
leading author of popular thrillers, As We Forgive Them is a story
of espionage, mystery, and murder. Using his own research and
experience as a journalist and adventurer, Le Queux crafts an
accessible, entertaining tale for readers in search of a literary
escape. Known for his works of fiction and nonfiction on the
possibility of Germany invading Britain-a paranoia common in the
early twentieth century-William Le Queux also wrote dozens of
thrillers and adventure novels for a dedicated public audience.
Although critical acclaim eluded him, popular success made him one
of England's bestselling writers. In As We Forgive Them, two
friends journey from London to Manchester after receiving an urgent
telegram from Burton Blair, a wealthy philanthropist. Arriving at
Blair's hotel room, they discover their friend dying from a sudden
illness. Before passing on, he begs them to look after his daughter
Mabel, recalling their friendship in times of immense difficulty.
Years before he made his millions, Blair and his daughter were
taken in by Gilbert and Reginald, and though their kindness was
repaid in full, they had always hoped to have the secret of Blair's
sudden wealth revealed to them. Not long after their arrival, the
great man dies, leaving the pair to find Mabel before her father's
death is discovered by nefarious individuals. In the story that
follows, the bonds of friendship are put to the test as Gilbert and
Reginald uncover a mystery centuries in the making, following a
trail that will lead them to a legendary lost treasure. With a
beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript,
this edition of William Le Queux's As We Forgive Them is a classic
mystery novel reimagined for modern readers.
