Burt is a successful businessman who is engaged to be married to his childhood sweetheart, Mary. However, his life takes a drastic turn when he is suspected of murdering his business partner, Richard Fenton.Despite his protests of innocence, Burt is arrested and put on trial. The evidence against him is circumstantial, and he finds himself facing a hostile judge and jury. His only hope is to find the real killer and prove his innocence.As the investigation unfolds, Burt discovers that Fenton had many enemies and that any one of them could have had a motive for murder. With the help of his loyal friends and family, Burt sets out to uncover the truth and clear his name.Suspected is a gripping tale of injustice, betrayal, and redemption. It explores the themes of loyalty, trust, and the power of friendship in the face of adversity. Dilnot’s writing is vivid and engaging, drawing the reader into the story and keeping them on the edge of their seat until the very end.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
