About the Book

The Devil's Garden by W. B. Maxwell is a gripping and suspenseful novel that explores the themes of love, betrayal, and revenge. Set in the early 20th century, the story follows the lives of two families, the Hopes and the Davenants, who live in a small English village. The Hopes are a wealthy family who own a large estate, while the Davenants are struggling to make ends meet.The novel opens with the arrival of a mysterious stranger, John Hazard, who quickly becomes embroiled in the lives of both families. He is charming and charismatic, but there is something sinister about him that makes the villagers uneasy. As the story unfolds, it becomes clear that Hazard has a hidden agenda and is determined to destroy the Hopes and the Davenants.The Devil's Garden is a masterful work of suspense and intrigue that keeps readers on the edge of their seats until the very end. With its complex characters, intricate plot, and vivid descriptions of English village life, this novel is a must-read for anyone who loves a good mystery.1913. Described by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle as the greatest of British novelists, it was with The Devil's Garden that Maxwell became recognized as one of the most powerful and arresting novelists of his day. This work, described as a study of elemental passion, excited wide discussion and was attacked in many quarters for the daring of its theme, obsession and adultery. Maxwell was surprised and disappointed by some of the critical reaction to his book and particularly by the ban that was placed on it by the circulating libraries. Ironically the publicity it received boosted its sales and made Maxwell a household name.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
