| Summary | "Slain By The Doones" by R. D. Blackmore is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. Set against the backdrop of Exmoor, it weaves a tale about the life of Sylvia Ford, a young woman whose father is brutally killed by a group of outlaws known as the Doones. The book explores themes of love, loyalty, and revenge amidst the struggles of a family driven from their home. The narrative follows Sylvia as she deals with the aftermath of her father's murder, her interactions with the charming yet troubled Marwood de Wichehalse, and her eventual kidnapping by the ruthless Carver Doone. Rescued by the brave John Ridd, the story unfolds through Sylvia's emotional journey as she grapples with grief, growing affections, and the complexities of her relationship with the Doones. Intertwined with elements of adventure and romance, the tale culminates in a battle for honor and retribution, presenting a captivating exploration of human resilience and the quest for justice.
