The Golden Barrier is a novel written by Agnes Castle. The story revolves around the life of a young woman named Dorothea. She is a beautiful and intelligent girl who is forced to marry a wealthy man against her will. However, her life takes a dramatic turn when she falls in love with a young artist named Hugh. Dorothea's husband is outraged, and he tries to keep the couple apart by building a golden barrier around their estate. Despite the obstacles, Dorothea and Hugh continue to pursue their love, leading to a series of dramatic events that will change their lives forever. The Golden Barrier is a gripping tale of love, betrayal, and determination that will keep readers on the edge of their seats until the very end.1913. A romantic novel from the notable literary couple of Egerton Castle and his wife, Agnes (Sweetman) Castle, who was a sister of the novelist Francis Blundell. The story begins: The hottest afternoon of the hot summer-so Lady Adelaide declared it to be. And though she was assured of the presence of a breeze and confronted with a thermometer, she maintained (on the authority of the Daily Mail, just arrived) that, as it had been ninety-eight at Kew yesterday, here, in South Devon, it must be well over a hundred; especially as the forecasts announced a still increasing temperature. She announced that, if they all chose to behave like lunatics and seek sunstroke in the hayfields, she at least would prove her sanity by lunching indoors and spending the afternoon in the library-the coolest room in the house.
