Description

"Pelham — Complete" by Baron Edward Bulwer Lytton Lytton is a novel published in 1828. This breakthrough silver fork novel follows the adventures of Henry Pelham, a young dandy, through Paris, London, and Cheltenham's fashionable society. Beginning as a light-hearted tale of high society life, the story transforms dramatically into a Gothic murder mystery when Pelham's friend faces execution for murder. Pelham must find the true killer to save him, pioneering elements that would later define the detective genre. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
