fiction, drama, history · EN

In Devils Garden, a tale of passion and intrigue, we meet William Dale, the postmaster of Rodhaven, a man of unwavering integrity whose rough exterior is softened by his beautiful wife, Mavis. An orphan raised by her Aunt Petherick, Mavis brings warmth to Wills life, but their happiness is threatened when a shocking revelation from her past surfaces during a romantic evening in London. As Will grapples with this unsettling secret, their marriage hangs in the balance, forcing both to confront their struggles and aspirations. This novel, once a top ten bestseller in 1914, was deemed risqué for its time and even banned in London. The narrative may ebb and flow, leaving listeners pondering the authors intent, but just when you think you have it figured out, Maxwell delivers a whirlwind of unexpected twists that keep you on the edge of your seat.
