Description

"Cousin Henry" by Anthony Trollope is a novel published in 1879. When an elderly Welsh squire dies without revealing his final wishes, his unsuitable nephew Henry inherits the grand estate of Llanfeare—though suspicions swirl that the beloved niece Isabel should be the rightful heir. Henry harbors a terrible secret that torments him daily, yet he lacks both the courage to reveal it and the ruthlessness to destroy it. As a crusading newspaper editor and determined lawyer close in, Henry must face an impossible choice that will determine his fate. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
