Books like The Wild Marauder by Ann Barker
Dora Parrish and Lord Yelden are the picture of a perfect marriage. But whispers of Charlie’s new interest in the London social scene set off a chain of doubts in Dora’s mind. In an attempt to rekindle what is threatened, her younger sister Fenella arranges for a stranger, the charming Mr. Giles Beville, to flirt with Dora while Charlie watches.
The scheme quickly gains traction: Charlie is touched enough to propose, yet Fenella’s scheme throws into sharp relief Charlie’s gambling habit and the risks he endangers: his home and his household’s stability. A series of misfortunes pin down Charlie’s true nature, and his relationships are put to the ultimate test. The story asks whether love can flourish when trust falters.
