Concerning the plot, or leading incident in the Tale, whether it be borrowed from the record of history, whether it be a story of credence in some country village, or altogether an invention of the Author, I cannot determine.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book, written in the 18th century and set in medieval England, is a historical tale of deception, murder, justice, and redemption. Blending historical context with mystery, the author delves deep into the human psyche to explore themes of guilt, prejudice, and the nature of justice. When a young woman is murdered, the prime suspect is Henry Fitzhugh, who is found near the crime scene with a bloody weapon. Despite his claims of innocence, the circumstantial evidence condemns him in the eyes of the community. Imprisoned and awaiting execution, Henry faces despair but clings to the hope that the truth will prevail. As the story unfolds, the reader is invited to question the reliability of appearances and weigh the evidence against the possibility of a grave miscarriage of justice. The book's exploration of guilt and innocence, the power of prejudice, and the search for redemption resonates with timeless relevance, making this historical tale an intriguing and thought-provoking read for anyone interested in historical mysteries and the human condition.
