A Fluttered Dovecote is a novel written by George Manville Fenn and published in 1890. The story is set in England during the late 19th century and revolves around the lives of several characters who are connected through their relationships and interactions with each other. The central character of the story is a young woman named Mabel Claremont, who is engaged to a wealthy young man named Arthur Sterne. However, Mabel’s life is turned upside down when she discovers that her father has been involved in illegal activities and is now on the run from the law. As Mabel struggles to come to terms with her father’s actions, she also has to deal with the attentions of another man, a handsome and charming artist named Cyril Maitland. Despite her love for Arthur, Mabel finds herself drawn to Cyril, and the two begin a secret affair. Meanwhile, Arthur becomes increasingly suspicious of Mabel’s behavior and hires a private detective to investigate her. The detective soon discovers Mabel’s affair with Cyril, and the news spreads throughout their social circle. As the scandal threatens to destroy Mabel’s reputation and her engagement to Arthur, she must decide whether to follow her heart or do what is expected of her by society. Along the way, she learns important lessons about love, loyalty, and the consequences of one’s actions. A Fluttered Dovecote is a compelling story of love, betrayal, and redemption that offers a fascinating glimpse into the social mores and values of Victorian England.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
