"The Secret of Wyvern Towers" by T. W. Speight is a 19th-century mystery where Felix Drelincourt's life shatters with the murder of his wife, Kate, at their home, Wyvern Towers. The story kicks off with Felix mourning his past love, Madeline, only to be confronted with the terrible news delivered by his foster brother, Roden Marsh. From there, suspicion falls on Felix as a handkerchief of his is found near the body, adding fuel to the mystery; other characters, like the sneaky gardener Gumley, get caught up in the mess, making it hard to tell who's guilty. The story pulls you into a world of secrets, mistaken identities and the search for the truth. It's about figuring out who did it, but also about watching Felix deal with sadness, suspicion, and the struggle to prove he's not the villain.
