A sharp line grips you from the start, as a web of loyalty, deceit and high-stakes statecraft closes around turn of the century London. In The Betrayal, E. Phillips Oppenheim crafts a keen, propulsive blend of crime fiction, political thriller and spy novel, where every whispered rumour may tilt the balance of power and trust. This edition reveals a story of Integrity tested by ambition, where secrecy and deception drive both personal and political chess. Sharp social observation meets page-turning suspense: a city of fog-bound façades, coded messages, and quiet revolutions beneath respectable parlours. The narrative rewards readers with Doyle-style acuity-tight plotting, clever twists, and a haunting sense that treachery can bloom behind the safest doors-while offering a fresh, modern rhythm for today's thrillers. Beyond its bewitching plot, The Betrayal bears historical weight as a window into Edwardian England and turn-of-the-century crime. It sits at the crossroads of classic mystery readers' appetites and the needs of a contemporary, curious audience. For casual readers, it delivers brisk propulsion and memorable scenes; for classic-literature collectors, it represents a rare, cherished artefact of literary heritage. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions, this edition is restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure. A true cornerstone for anyone who loves espionage, intrigue, and enduring crime storytelling.
