The Black Opal is a novel written by Maxwell Gray and first published in 1918. The story is set in the late 19th century and follows the lives of two sisters, Damaris and Dorcas, who live in a small village in England. Damaris is engaged to a wealthy and respected man, while Dorcas is in love with a poor artist. However, their lives are turned upside down when they discover a black opal, a precious gemstone with a dark history. The stone brings both good fortune and tragedy to the sisters and those around them, leading to a series of unexpected events and revelations. The Black Opal is a gripping tale of love, greed, and betrayal, with a touch of mystery and suspense. It explores themes of class, morality, and the consequences of one's actions. The novel is a classic example of early 20th-century British literature and is considered one of Maxwell Gray's most popular works.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
