One Life, One Love

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.
