One Life, One Love

by Mary Elizabeth Braddon

Set against the backdrop of late Victorian England and Paris, "One Life, One Love" follows the tragic unraveling of a seemingly idyllic life. The murder of Robert Hatrell, a loving husband and father, sets in motion a chain of events that lead his wife Clara and her young daughter Daisy down a path of grief and suspicion. As the investigation unfolds, Clara finds herself caught in a web of deceit, betrayal, and hidden identities, with the true killer shrouded in a veil of mystery. The novel delves into themes of loss, love, revenge, and the complex nature of human relationships, as Clara navigates a world of shifting alliances and concealed motives in her desperate search for the truth.
