wife, Agnes (Sweetman) Castle, who was a sister of the novelist
Francis Blundell comes The Bath Comedy, a tale of intrigue set in
the famous watering spot followed the first of their popular,
stylish historical romances, The Pride of Jennico. The story
begins: What? My sweet Lady Standish in tears! Mistress Kitty
Bellairs poised her dainty person on one foot, and cast a mocking,
somewhat contemptuous, yet good-humoured glance at the slim length
of sobbing womanhood prone on the gilt-legged, satin-cushioned
sofa. See other titles by this author available from Kessinger

1913. A romantic novel from the notable literary couple of Egerton
Castle and his wife, Agnes (Sweetman) Castle, who was a sister of
the novelist Francis Blundell. The story begins: The hottest
afternoon of the hot summer-so Lady Adelaide declared it to be. And
though she was assured of the presence of a breeze and confronted
with a thermometer, she maintained (on the authority of the Daily
Mail, just arrived) that, as it had been ninety-eight at Kew
yesterday, here, in South Devon, it must be well over a hundred;
especially as the forecasts announced a still increasing
temperature. She announced that, if they all chose to behave like
lunatics and seek sunstroke in the hayfields, she at least would
prove her sanity by lunching indoors and spending the afternoon in
the library-the coolest room in the house. See other titles by this
author available from Kessinger Publishing.

1899. From the notable literary couple of Egerton Castle and his
wife, Agnes (Sweetman) Castle, who was a sister of the novelist
Francis Blundell comes the first of their popular, stylish
historical romances, The Pride of Jennico. The novel relays the
story of an English aristocrat who inherits a princedom in Moravia.
The story begins: As the wind rattles the casements with impotent
clutch, howls down the stair-turret with the voice of a despairing
soul, creeps in long irregular waves between the tapestries and the
granite walls of my chamber and wantons with the flames of logs and
candles; knowing, as I do, that outside the snow is driven
relentlessly by the gale, and that I can hope for no relief from
the company of my wretched self, -for they who have learnt the
temper of these wild mountain winds tell me the storm must last at
least three days more in its fury, -I have bethought to me, to keep
from going melancholy crazed altogether, to set me some regular
task to do. See other titles by this author available from
