The Master of Hullingham Manor

<p><span style=color: rgba(34 34 34 1)>Carlos Hullingham is a handsome devil: physically perfect but morally bankrupt. He is society's darling 'but behind the sensuous charm of exterior there lurks the spirit of a fiend ruthless in its cruelty and malice.' His first wife Adelaide Hullingham is dead... done to death... and now his second wife is proving troublesome. Originally published in 1897 'The Master of Hullingham Manor' is a tale of wickedness murder and revenge. With a cruel aristocrat an imprisoned wife a devious asylum owner a fair bit of adultery a vaulted room and a 'Phantom Recital' to boot it is everything you'd expect from a 'shilling shocker'.</span></p><p><br></p><p><span style=color: rgba(34 34 34 1)>In the introductory essay to this new edition Gina R.
