Thorley Weir is a novel written by Edward Frederic Benson and published in 1913. The story is set in a small English village where the protagonist, Leonard Anquetil, inherits a large estate called Thorley Weir. Leonard is a successful writer who wants to escape the hustle and bustle of city life and settle in the countryside. He moves to Thorley Weir with his wife, but soon discovers that the villagers are not as friendly as he had hoped. He also becomes interested in a mysterious woman named Mrs. Quantock, who lives in a nearby cottage. As Leonard tries to unravel the secrets of Thorley Weir and the people who live there, he becomes embroiled in a web of deceit, betrayal, and murder. The novel is a gripping tale of love, jealousy, and revenge, and is considered one of Benson's best works. It is a classic example of early 20th-century English literature and is a must-read for fans of the genre.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
