About this ebook
Rich in intrigue and psychological tension, Wylder’s Hand [1864] is one of J. Sheridan Le Fanu’s most tightly plotted novels, blending gothic suspense with the emerging Victorian sensation genre. With its morally ambiguous characters and slow-burning dread, it showcases Le Fanu’s skill at revealing the hidden motives and buried crimes that shape seemingly respectable lives.
JOSEPH SHERIDAN LE FANU [1814-1873] was an Irish mystery and horror author. He had an enormous influence on the horror genre in the 19th and 20th century, especially through his championing of tone and effect rather than shock factor. Among his most noted work is the lesbian vampire novella Carmilla [1872] and mystery Uncle Silas [1864].
