# Man and Wife

By Wilkie Collins.

"Man and Wife" by Wilkie Collins is a sensation novel published in 1870. When a governess is abandoned by her lover through a loophole in Scottish marriage law, three people find themselves entangled in a legal nightmare. Who is married to whom? As lawyers clash and reputations hang in the balance, the story darkens from legal thriller to deadly conspiracy. Collins weaves social critique with suspense, exposing the dangers of flawed marriage laws and the brutality lurking beneath Victorian respectability.
