Jezebel's Daughter is a novel by the famous English author Wilkie Collins, first published in 1880. Set in the mid-19th century, the story revolves around a young man named Lewis Romayne who is haunted by a dark secret from his past. Romayne is a wealthy and respected member of society, but his peace of mind is shattered when he receives a letter from a mysterious woman named Madame Fontaine, who claims to have information about his past that could ruin him.As Romayne tries to uncover the truth about his past, he becomes entangled in a web of deceit and intrigue that leads him to the doorstep of Madame Fontaine's stepdaughter, the beautiful and enigmatic Jezebel. Jezebel is a woman of many secrets, and Romayne finds himself drawn to her despite his better judgment. As their relationship deepens, Romayne begins to suspect that Jezebel may be using him for her own purposes, and he must decide whether to trust her or to walk away from her altogether.Jezebel's Daughter is a gripping tale of love, betrayal, and redemption, full of twists and turns that will keep readers on the edge of their seats. With its vivid characters, intricate plot, and masterful storytelling, it is a classic work of Victorian literature that still resonates with readers today.After no very long reflection, I decided that my best course would be to severely caution Joseph, and to say nothing to the partners of what had happened--for the present, at least. I should certainly do mischief, by setting the two old friends at variance again on the subject of the widow, if I spoke; to say nothing (as another result) of the likelihood of Joseph's dismissal by Mr. Keller. Actuated by these reasonable considerations, I am bound frankly to add that I must have felt some vague misgivings as well. Otherwise, why did I carefully examine Mr. Keller's room (before I returned to the theater), without any distinct idea of any conceivable discovery that I might make?This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
