January 1954. Mists cover the hills around Selchester. Someone at the research facility known as the Atomic is leaking secrets to Soviet Russia, and when nuclear scientist Bruno Rothesay goes missing, the British Intelligence Services are convinced he's the mole. Hugo Hawksworth isn't so sure. Then a body turns up, and Hugo's instincts are proven correct. But if Rothesay wasn't selling secrets to the Soviets, who is?\n\nAs Hugo digs deeper into buried connections and unlikely coincidences, he knows there's more to this case than his London superiors believe. But following his instincts will pit him against the Establishment-and tangle him once again in the poisonous legacy of the late Lord Selchester.\n\nAs he closes in on the truth, Hugo finds himself confronted by an adversary who will stop at nothing, in a case that will prove the most personal of his career.\n\nWith a touch of Downton Abbey, a whisper of Agatha Christie and a nod to John Le Carre, A Matter Of Loyalty is the third and final book in this delightfully classic and witty murder-mystery series.

Il vasto e tormentato mondo di Aquasilva sta ormai per soccombere al giogo teocratico dei sacerdoti del Dominio. Il destino di chi si oppone è segnato: una condanna per eresia e la detenzione nelle prigioni della famigerata Inquisizione, da cui - si dice - nessuno è mai uscito vivo. Eppure forse una speranza ancora c'è... Il giovane Cathan, erede al trono di Lepidor, dopo essere riuscito a salvare la sua regione dalle mire dispotiche del Dominio, è ora pronto a riprendere il largo con i suoi amici, alla ricerca di nuovi alleati e soprattutto di risposte alle troppe domande irrisolte. Si reca così nel lontano Arcipelago, con lo scopo di organizzare un commercio di armi, in vista della crociata che i sacerdoti stanno preparando contro i ribelli.

Weathering critical scorn, Lady Audley's Secret quickly established Mary Elizabeth Braddon as the leading light of Victorian 'sensation' fiction, sharing the honour only with Wilkie Collins. Addictive, cunningly plotted and certainly sensational, Lady Audley's Secret draws on contemporary theories of insanity to probe mid-Victorian anxieties about the rapid rise of consumer culture. What is the mystery surrounding the charming heroine? Lady Audley's secret is investigated by Robert Audley, aristocrat turned detective, in a novel that has lost none of its power to disturb and entertain.

'it only rests with yourself to become Lady Audley, and the mistress of Audley Court'\n\nWhen beautiful young Lucy Graham accepts the hand of Sir Michael Audley, her fortune and her future look secure. But Lady Audley's past is shrouded in mystery, and to Sir Michael's nephew Robert, she is not all that she seems.

Can Robert's darkest suspicions really be true?\n\nLady Audley's Secret was an immediate bestseller, and readers have enjoyed its thrilling plot ever since its first publication in 1862. This new edition explores Braddon's portrait of her scheming heroine in the context of the nineteenth-century sensation novel and the lively, often hostile debates it provoked. \nABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World's Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe.

Capolavoro di Mary Elizabeth Braddon, \"Il segreto di Lady Audley\" uscì a puntate tra il 1861 e il 1862 sulle pagine delle riviste letterarie del tempo, riscuotendo un successo di pubblico che la consacrò come nuova stella del sensation novel e rivale di Wilkie Collins. Al talento nel tenere avvinto il lettore univa una sensibilità tutta femminile e una coscienza sociale attraverso cui sono filtrate le vicende dei suoi scritti. Sir Michael Audley, vedovo da anni, sposa la giovane e bellissima Lucy Graham, un'istitutrice dall'oscuro passato i cui capricci scatenano la gelosia di Alicia, la figlia di primo letto poco più che adolescente. Un giorno Robert Audley, lo sfaccendato nipote, avvocato a tempo perso, porta con sé in visita George Talboys, un caro amico appena tornato dall'Australia e prostrato da una recente vedovanza - o almeno così sembra -, che d'un tratto scompare misteriosamente. Facendo i conti con le menzogne, l'inganno, e anche un tentato omicidio nei suoi confronti, sarà proprio Robert, le cui doti di tenacia e intelligenza erano state finora celate da un carattere indolente, a intraprendere un'indagine dai risvolti inattesi che condurrà allo scioccante e imprevedibile colpo di scena finale.

Mary Elizabeth Braddon's shocking and suspenseful novel Lady Audley's Secret was one of the most popular examples of the \"sensation fiction\" craze of the 1860s. Within a year of the novel appearing in book form, no less than three theatrical adaptations appeared on the London stage. Braddon took strong issue with two of these, but she approved of the adaptation by Robert Walters (writing under the pseudonym \"George Roberts\"); this edition presents that version, which enjoyed a two season run at the Royal St. James Theatre. Entertaining in itself, the play also provides a fascinating example of how the suspense and the powerful characterizations of sensation fiction were heightened still further for the stage.\n\nTogether with the annotated text of the play itself, this edition includes an introduction addressing the life and work of Mary Elizabeth Braddon and placing Lady Audley's Secret: A Drama in Two Acts in the context of the sensation fiction phenomenon. Appendices include a substantial selection of reviews of Lady Audley's Secret-of the novel as well as of its dramatic adaptations-as well as a selection from the novel for comparison with the play.

And if his birth proves to be legitimate, then he will find himself with the one title he never wanted: Duke of Wyndham.\n\nGrace Eversleigh has spent the last five years toiling as the companion to the dowager Duchess of Wyndham.

With Lady Audley's Secret, Mary Elizabeth Braddon had established herself, alongside Wilkie Collins and Mrs Henry Wood, as one of the ruling triumvirate of `sensation novelists'. Aurora Floyd (1862-3), following hot on its heels, achieved almost equal popularity and notoriety.\n\n Like Lady Audley, Aurora is a beautiful young woman bigamously married and threatened with exposure by a blackmailer. But in Aurora Floyd, and in many of the novels written in imitation of it, bigamy is little more than a euphemism, a device to enable the heroine, and vicariously the reader, to enjoy the forbidden sweets of adultery without adulterous intentions. Passionate, sometimes violent, Aurora does succeed in enjoying them, her desires scarcely chastened by her disastrous first\nmarriage. She represents a challenge to the mid-Victorian sexual code, and particularly to the feminine ideal of simpering, angelic young ladyhood. \n\n P. D. Edward's introduction evaluates the novel's leading place among `bigamy-novels' and Braddon's treatment of the power struggle between the sexes, as well as considering the similarities between the author and her heroine. \nABOUT THE SERIES: For over 100 years Oxford World's Classics has made available the widest range of literature from around the globe. Each affordable volume reflects Oxford's commitment to scholarship, providing the most accurate text plus a wealth of other valuable features, including expert introductions by leading authorities, helpful notes to clarify the text, up-to-date bibliographies for further study, and much more.

Veterano di guerra, bandito di strada, Jack Audley ha condotto finora un'esistenza spensierata quanto spericolata. Di sicuro non lo stile di vita che ci si aspetterebbe da un pari del regno, discendente di un antico lignaggio e responsabile del sostentamento di centinaia di famiglie. Ma è costretto a cambiare totalmente abitudini quando viene riconosciuto come l'erede perduto della casata di Wyndham. Assumere il titolo di duca di Wyndham, con tutti gli onori e soprattutto gli oneri che ciò comporta, è però l'ultima cosa che desidera. Anche se potrebbe essere il modo migliore per stare vicino a Grace Eversleigh. Quest'ultima è da cinque anni la dama di compagnia della duchessa madre di Wyndham. Un lavoro poco piacevole, che offre ben scarse distrazioni… almeno fino all'arrivo di Jack Audley, con i suoi sorrisi accattivanti e il suo fascino scanzonato. Jack non è tipo da accettare un rifiuto come risposta; e quando si ritrova tra le sue braccia, Grace non ha alcuna intenzione di dirgli «no». Ma se è proprio lui il vero duca, allora è l'unico uomo che lei non potrà mai avere.
