{NOVEL PREVIOUSLY NAMED: "PALE EYES"}

To fulfill a request made by his father, twenty-one years old Julius Caldwell dolefully leaves his poverty-stricken family behind in their little village, the place of his birth, Wyoverwick of Somerset in search of greener pastures. The request was made after a thirst-greedy drought annexed Wyoverwick, seized the rivulets of life the sky had to offer, and clutched a wispy hand to the grounds of the village, drinking up any and every moisture from its centre with a press of her crisped persistent lips.

Julius Caldwell attains the position of one of the many footmen who render their services to the wealthy Duke of Griffenton, Somerset; the infamous Lord Alfred Benjamin Griffith. Thereafter, Julius becomes entangled in the complicated life affairs of the only son of the Duke. A nineteen-years old bitter, solemn and hot-tempered stripling named Reuben Noe Griffith. The encounter between the two young men began as one of intense dislike for each other, but over time, their feelings towards one another morphed into something passionate and ingest.

❦︎Is it within possibility for two young men of their time to prevail amid torrid consuming dread, anguished longing and forbidden affection?
