Edward George Earle Lytton Bulwer-Lytton, 1st Baron Lytton, (1803-1873) was an English novelist, poet, playwright, and politician. He was immensely popular with the reading public and wrote a stream of bestselling novels which earned him a considerable fortune. He coined the phrases 'the great unwashed', 'pursuit of the almighty dollar', 'the pen is mightier than the sword', 'dweller on the threshold', and the well-known and much-parodied opening line 'It was a dark and stormy night'. After his death, Bulwer-Lytton suffered a tremendous decline in reputation and today is best known for the 'dark and stormy night' line and the Bulwer-Lytton Fiction Contest, to determine the opening sentence of the worst of all possible novels.**PRICE JUST REDUCED!

To the great unhappiness of a lovely young woman, Sarah, she is placed under the guardianship of Edward Channon when her father is murdered. Reserved and private, Edward's presence in the house of mourning makes her uneasy but is faintly enticing. She can enjoy the excitement of the coastal English village, even with the threat of Napoleon's invasion ever present. And she is still allowed to see Will Penfyn, the young man whom she's loved since childhood, with whom she secretly intends to elope. However, in the middle of the dangers rocking this turbulent era, Sarah's contentment suddenly comes to an end. Her planned elopement with Will is interrupted by the increasingly forceful Edward- now a most mystifying enigma to her. Book
