Foul Play is a novel written by Charles Reade and published in 1868. The story follows the life of a young man named Richard Wardour, who is falsely accused of murder. Wardour is a gentleman who is engaged to a beautiful woman named Lucy Desborough, but their happiness is short-lived when Wardour is accused of killing a man named Herbert Daring. Daring was a wealthy man who had been involved in a love triangle with Lucy and her cousin, Arthur Wardlaw. The evidence against Wardour is strong, and he is sentenced to death. However, Lucy and Arthur are convinced of his innocence and set out to prove it. Along the way, they encounter a cast of colorful characters, including a cunning lawyer, a corrupt prison warden, and a clever detective. The novel is full of twists and turns, and the reader is kept on the edge of their seat until the very end. Foul Play is a thrilling tale of love, betrayal, and justice, and is considered one of Charles Reade's greatest works.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
