A great story full of suspense, mystery, superstition, religion, lies, deceit, crossed love affairs, and the impetuousity of emotions which overwhelm one's sensibilities when beholding a beautiful but cunningly devious and ambitious woman. Verner's Pride is an estate that is to be the inheritance of Lionel Verner after the demise of his uncle. But the uncle's stepsons and a prominent local cunningly devise their own plans to take the inheritance away from Lionel for their own benefit. And it happens not once but twice. Behind the murder mystery and estate swapping is the story of three siblings, Lionel, Jan and their sister Decima who all wait years to find happiness with their true loves in the end. Are there men like Lionel and Jan out there or women like Lucy? Great book!
