Mr. Lismore and the Widow is a novel written by Wilkie Collins, a famous British author known for his mystery and suspense novels. The book tells the story of Mr. Lismore, a wealthy and respected man who falls in love with a young widow named Mrs. Drumblade. Despite their age difference and the disapproval of society, Mr. Lismore proposes to Mrs. Drumblade and she accepts. However, their happiness is short-lived as a series of mysterious events begin to occur, including the theft of valuable jewelry and the appearance of a strange woman who claims to be Mrs. Drumblade's long-lost sister. As Mr. Lismore investigates these events, he begins to suspect that his new wife may not be who she seems. The novel is filled with twists and turns, as Mr. Lismore uncovers the truth about his wife's past and the sinister forces that threaten their future together. With its engaging plot and well-drawn characters, Mr. Lismore and the Widow is a classic tale of love, betrayal, and intrigue 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.
