The Trail of the Serpent is a Victorian sensation novel of murder, deception, and hidden identity. In the town of Slopperton, the brutal killing of a wealthy man casts suspicion on his disgraced nephew, Richard Marwood. As the seemingly respectable school usher Jabez North reveals darker depths, a relentless investigation unfolds. Through rain-soaked streets and intertwined lives, Braddon exposes moral corruption, mistaken guilt, and the sinister truths lurking beneath respectable society.

    When Phoebe and her disabled husband, Martyn, move into a new house in a quiet village, they plan to lead a quiet existence, to keep themselves to themselves. It’s safer that way.
