Knave of Diamonds

by Ethel M. Dell

Ethel M. Dell's "Knave of Diamonds" is a captivating tale of love and societal constraints set against the backdrop of the English countryside. Lady Anne Carfax, a reserved and unhappily married woman, finds solace and unexpected friendship with the spirited American, Napoleon "Nap" Errol. Their connection, though innocent, ignites jealousy and fury in Anne's husband, Sir Giles Carfax. As Nap's feelings deepen for Anne, he faces the challenge of navigating his love for a woman bound by societal expectations and her unfulfilling marriage. The novel delves into themes of societal norms, unconventional love, and the complexities of relationships within a rigid social structure.
