The Wyvern Mystery is a Gothic novel written by Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu and first published in 1869. The story takes place in the mid-19th century and revolves around a young woman named Alice Maybell who inherits a large estate called Wyvern from her uncle. Alice's arrival at Wyvern is met with suspicion and hostility from the housekeeper, Mrs. Maloney, who seems to have a dark secret of her own. As Alice tries to uncover the truth about her uncle's death and the strange occurrences happening at Wyvern, she becomes entangled in a web of deceit and danger. Along the way, she meets a mysterious man named Charles Fairfield who offers to help her, but his true intentions are unclear. As Alice delves deeper into the mysteries of Wyvern, she discovers a shocking truth that threatens to destroy everything she holds dear. This novel is a classic example of Victorian Gothic literature, filled with suspense, romance, and supernatural elements.In Three Volumes.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
