50 - Dead Mens Shoes by Mary Elizabeth Braddon

In this riveting murder mystery, Sybil, a humble woman who has had to earn her keep, finally lands a job as her wealthy uncles housekeeper. The job seems too good to be true - not only does it involve minimal work and respect, but it also promises a hefty inheritance. Everything takes a turn when she falls for a man she shouldnt, and her uncle mysteriously dies from poison. Suddenly, all eyes are on Sybil. Can she clear her name? What secrets did her uncle carry to his grave? This enthralling tale, reminiscent of the works of Wilkie Collins, explores not only the suspense of a murder mystery, but also delves into the complexities of love - familial, romantic, and communal.
