Witness to the Deed by George Manville Fenn

"Witness to the Deed" by George Manville Fenn is a psychological novel written in the late 19th century. The narrative centers on Malcolm Stratton, a naturalist, who is on the verge of marrying Myra Jerrold, the daughter of an admiral. However, complications arise when a visitor reveals himself to be Myra's seemingly deceased husband, throwing the wedding and their lives into chaos. At the start of the story, Malcolm Stratton is busy preparing for his wedding day, filled with excitement and anticipation. Just before he sets out for the ceremony, a man claiming to be James Barron, Myra's husband, arrives with startling news: he is not dead, as everyone believed, and he threatens to disrupt their lives for his own gain. The tension escalates as Malcolm struggles against this unscrupulous figure while trying to protect Myra from the disastrous implications of his existence. The early chapters set the stage for a story rife with conflict, betrayal, and the exploration of human emotions in the face of unexpected revelations. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
