The Manxman : a novel
"The Manxman" by Sir Hall Caine is a novel published in 1894. Set on the Isle of Man, it tells the story of a romantic triangle between Kate Cregeen and two cousins: the goodhearted but poor Peter Quilliam and the educated lawyer Philip Christian. When Peter leaves to seek his fortune in South Africa, he entrusts Philip to care for Kate in his absence. What follows is a tale of forbidden love, deception, and the mounting consequences of choices made in passion and desperation.
