The Broad Highway

Peter Vibart is his uncle's favorite nephew and as such, it has always been expected that he would inherit the lands, fortune and title of his uncle. But, his shocking will says otherwise. Peter will only inherit if he marries Lady Sophia, the toast of the town.  Arguably Farnol's best novel, The Broad Highway was a bestseller when first published and remains a favorite cloak-and-sword adventure romance to this day.
