Charlotte's Inheritance is a novel written by Mary E. Braddon. The story revolves around Charlotte Halliday, a young woman who inherits a large fortune from her father. However, she soon discovers that her father's wealth was acquired through illegal means, and she must navigate the consequences of his actions. Along the way, Charlotte encounters a cast of characters, including her father's former business partner, a mysterious stranger, and a potential love interest. As she struggles to come to terms with her inheritance and the truth about her father's past, Charlotte must also confront her own desires and ambitions. The novel is a classic example of Victorian-era literature, with themes of morality, romance, and social class.In his love for the woman he had chosen Gustave Lenoble never wavered. He worked for her, he endured for her, he hoped against hope for her sake; and it was only when bodily strength failed that this nameless foot-soldier began to droop and falter in life's bitter battle. Things had gone ill with him. He had tried his fate as an advocate in Paris, in Caen, in Rouen--but clients would not come. He had been a clerk, now in one counting-house, now in another, and Susan and he had existed somehow during the seven years of their married life.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
