Summary

"In White Raiment" by William Le Queux is a mystery novel where Dr. Richard Colkirk, a London doctor, finds himself caught in a complex situation full of moral challenges. After a setback, he returns to London and is soon asked to do something shocking: a rich man offers him money to marry his dying daughter, Beryl Wynd, to give her peace in her final moments. As Colkirk considers this strange request, he uncovers secrets and faces difficult choices that will change his life, all while figuring out the truth behind Beryl's sickness. The story is about deception, suffering, and the hard choices people make in tough situations.

About the Author

William Tufnell Le Queux was an Anglo-French journalist and writer. He was also a diplomat, a traveller, a flying buff who officiated at the first British air meeting at Doncaster in 1909, and a wireless pioneer who broadcast music from his own station long before radio was generally available; his claims regarding his own abilities and exploits, however, were usually exaggerated. His best-known works are the anti-French and anti-Russian invasion fantasy The Great War in England in 1897 (1894) and the anti-German invasion fantasy The Invasion of 1910 (1906), the latter becoming a bestseller.
