The Fog Princes

Behind the walls of Llancader Castle, love and social rank are about to collide. The Earl of St. Austell rules his estate with a firm hand, yet his household is far from tranquil. His wife keeps lamenting that the family has no son to carry on its name, while their three daughters, Elizabeth, Marion and Kate, spend their days weighing marriage, duty and the unbending rules of class. And young Lady Marion has lost her heart to a man whose place in the world is not her own: Rees Pennant, the handsome son of a local captain. But affairs of the heart are not the only thing stirring beneath the castle's roof. Whispers of a treasure hidden in the castle's past, from the time of a siege, begin to circulate among its inhabitants, and Marion soon finds herself drawn into a quiet intrigue involving the castle's librarian. Ambition, curiosity and longing start to tangle together, and nothing in the household is quite what it seems. Florence Warden, the prolific Victorian author of The House on the Marsh, fills this tale with brooding atmosphere, sharp observation of English gentry life and a lively sense of suspense. Part romance, part mystery and part portrait of a society ruled by appearances, The Fog Princes is a gripping listen about trust, desire and the secrets old houses keep. A public domain classic, perfect for fans of Victorian fiction, castle mysteries, love across social lines and a good treasure hunt.
