| Summary | "Whoso Findeth a Wife" by William Le Queux is a novel written in the late 19th century. The book delves into political intrigue and personal drama, centering around Geoffrey Deedes, the private secretary to the Earl of Warnham, who becomes embroiled in a scandal involving a secret treaty that could determine the fate of nations. The narrative begins with rising tensions as Deedes grapples with an urgent dispatch regarding a potentially catastrophic alliance, while simultaneously managing complex personal relationships. The opening of the novel sets the stage for entwined themes of duty and deception through a series of high-stakes diplomatic exchanges. The plot unfolds as Deedes anxiously awaits the return of Captain Hammerton with crucial dispatches from Berlin, only to later learn that his close friend, Dudley Ogle, has been found dead under mysterious circumstances. This shocking revelation leads to a deepening mystery that intertwines his professional life with his personal emotions, particularly involving his love for Ella Laing. As Deedes navigates this tumultuous landscape, he faces accusations of betrayal and must uncover the truth behind Ogle's death and its implications for England's future, establishing a gripping narrative that promises suspense and intrigue.
