| Summary | "The Angel of Terror" by Edgar Wallace is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around James Meredith, a man convicted of murder against a backdrop of jealousy and intrigue, and the implications of his conviction on those around him, including his fiancée, Jean Briggerland. As the narrative unfolds, themes of love, betrayal, and the pursuit of justice come to the forefront. At the start of the book, we are introduced to the tense atmosphere of a courtroom where James Meredith is sentenced for the murder of Ferdinand Bulford, an alleged crime driven by jealousy over his engagement to Jean Briggerland. The court's decision and the complicated dynamics between the characters, including the prominent lawyers and witnesses present, establish an air of mystery surrounding the true events. Following the trial, we see Lydia Beale, an artist burdened by debt, who becomes entwined in the lives of these characters, particularly as plans are set in motion that involve a marriage of convenience to save Meredith from his harsh fate. The opening portion sets the stage for a gripping tale of conspiracy and unexpected alliances as Lydia's choices will ultimately impact her life and the lives of those around her.
