Inhaltsangabe

A Bid for Fortune (English Edition) by Guy Boothby is a fast-paced Victorian adventure novel that sweeps you from the drawing rooms of London to the far edges of empire, where ambition, deception, and daring gambles can remake a life overnight.

When chance and confidence collide, fortunes are pursued with the same intensity as secrets are guarded. Boothby spins a tale of high stakes and higher risks, where calculated moves in society can be as dangerous as any confrontation in the shadows, and where the line between respectability and ruin can be crossed in an instant.

Rich with intrigue and period atmosphere, this classic story delivers suspense, shifting alliances, and the irresistible pull of a grand scheme—one that promises everything to those bold enough to place their bid, and threatens everything to those who misjudge the game.

Perfect for readers who enjoy classic adventure fiction, Victorian-era thrills, and twisty plots driven by charm, cunning, and relentless momentum, A Bid for Fortune remains an engaging example of popular late-19th-century storytelling from Guy Boothby.
