The Turn of the Tide is a novel written by Horace Annesley Vachell and published in 1908. The story is set in the early 20th century and revolves around the life of a young man named Dick Selwyn. He is a charming and ambitious lawyer who is determined to make a name for himself in the legal profession. The novel begins with Dick’s arrival in London, where he starts working for a prominent law firm. He quickly becomes known for his hard work and dedication, and he soon catches the eye of his boss, Mr. Goring. However, Dick is not content with just being a successful lawyer. He also wants to marry the woman he loves, a beautiful and intelligent young woman named Audrey Craven. Audrey is the daughter of a wealthy and influential family, and her father is not keen on the idea of her marrying a lawyer. Despite this, Dick is determined to win Audrey’s heart and prove himself worthy of her love. As the story progresses, Dick faces a number of challenges and setbacks. He is forced to deal with a difficult case that threatens to ruin his career, and he also has to contend with the disapproval of Audrey’s father. However, he remains steadfast in his determination to succeed, and he eventually manages to turn the tide in his favor. The Turn of the Tide is a compelling and engaging novel that explores themes of love, ambition, and perseverance.
