Alicia Deane

Angus and Robertson, 1954, hardcover

“Alicia Deane has for its background England of the seventeenth century, the Monmouth Rebellion, and the “Bloody Assizes” over which presided Judge Jeffreys, “Alicia Deane”, like the author’s previous works, is full of vivid incident, and the splendid characterization and colourful description need no introduction to discerning readers.
The story revolves round the love of two men for one woman – one selfless, patient, sincere; the other unscrupulous, arrogant, stopping at nothing to gain his own ends.”
