Summary

Henry Harland's book, 'Two Women or One? From the Mss. of Dr. Leonard Benary,' is a captivating tale of love, betrayal, and societal expectations set in the literary context of late 19th-century England. Written in a style reminiscent of classic Victorian literature, the book skillfully weaves a complex narrative that explores the intricacies of human relationships and the tension between duty and desire. Harland's attention to detail and rich character development make this novel a standout in the genre. The story is filled with unexpected twists and turns that will keep readers engaged until the very end. Henry Harland, a prominent author and editor of the late 19th century, drew inspiration from his own experiences in high society and his observations of human nature to create this thought-provoking work. His background in critical literary circles and his deep understanding of the human psyche undoubtedly influenced the depth and complexity of the characters in the book. Harland's ability to craft compelling narratives with moral ambiguity sets him apart as a skilled storyteller. I highly recommend 'Two Women or One? From the Mss. of Dr. Leonard Benary' to readers who enjoy thought-provoking historical fiction with a focus on relationships and societal norms. Harland's masterful storytelling and engaging plot make this book a must-read for fans of classic Victorian literature.

    Lorinda Boyer strove continuously to be virtuous in the eyes of God and to live the life she believed He intended for her. She married her high school boyfriend at eighteen and had two kids by twenty-eight. Although she created a perfect Christian home for her family, she never felt wholly content in her role as wife and mother. Then her life intersected with Robin's-the woman who would ultimately awaken her sexuality and show her true love for the first time. Struggling to come to terms with her sexual identity within the confines of her strict fundamentalist Christian upbringing, Lorinda is pushed into living a double life: one-part perfect housewife and mother, the other part sexual addict. She soon finds herself in the fight for her life. More than a coming-out story, this is a coming-into story-coming into an authentic life and self.

    Ex-Australian Specialist Response Group leader, Tim “Harry” Harrigan, has been running covert ops for almost a decade. A lone wolf, he’s single-handedly taken down terrorists and national security threats, or so he thinks. He’s been in the game far too long, and when he sees a familiar threat, he knows his time is up. 
    Asher Garin is a dangerous man. A man without loyalty, a man without a nationality, without a country, without a home. He’s also a mercenary for hire to the highest bidder. His next job is a face he recognises, and after a tip-off, he learns he too is a marked man. 
    It’s a different game now, and Harry and Asher have a better chance at surviving if they stick together. But it’s not just the game or the rules that have changed. The stakes have too. 
    Because on their own, they had nothing to lose. Together, they do.
