Mr. Lismore and the Widow is a classic novel by Wilkie Collins, first published in 1888. The story follows the life of Mr. Lismore, a wealthy and successful businessman, who falls in love with a beautiful widow named Mrs. Farnaby. Despite their age difference and the disapproval of society, the two embark on a passionate romance. However, their happiness is threatened by a series of mysterious events that suggest Mrs. Farnaby may not be who she seems. As Mr. Lismore delves deeper into her past, he discovers a shocking secret that could destroy their relationship forever. With its complex characters and intricate plot, Mr. Lismore and the Widow is a gripping tale of love, betrayal, and redemption that will keep readers on the edge of their seats until the very end.The one security that he could offer was open, it must be owned, to serious objections on the score of risk. He wanted an advance of twenty thousand pounds, secured on a homeward-bound ship and cargo. But the vessel was not insured, and at that stormy season she was already more than a month overdue. Could grateful colleagues be blamed if they forgot their obligations when they were asked to offer pecuniary help to a merchant in this situation? Ernest returned to his office without money and without credit.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
