No, said the magistrate, it aggravates it. Admit such a defence, and let it serve as a palliation of guilt, and the whole moral fabric is destroyed. What weighs heavily against the prisoner is his evident disinclination to reveal all he knows in connection with the hours he passed in the forest on the night of his brother's death. He is concealing something, and he seeks refuge in equivocation. When I accused him of this his confusion increased. Iasked him whether his meeting with his brother was accidental or premeditated, and.

Excerpt from A Secret Inheritance, Vol. 3 of 3
The investigations in the course of which Emilius related his version of what had passed between him and his ill-fated brother - I use the phrase to give expression to my meaning, but indeed it is hard to say to which of the brothers, the living or the dead, it can be applied with the greater force - took place in private, only the accused and the magistrate, with a secretary to write down what was said, being present. The magistrate in his conversations with Doctor Louis and Gabriel Carew, did not hesitate to declare his belief in the prisoner's guilt.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book tells the story of a man named Emilius, who is imprisoned for killing his brother. He claims to be innocent and tells his friend that he has a secret which he will only confide in either Gabriel Carew or his wife, Patricia. Emilius is the son of a man called Sylvain, who was a twin to a brother called Kristel. Sylvain falls in love with a woman named Inez, who also falls for his brother. They maintain their relationship in secret, never marrying, but have two sons, Emilius and Eric, the latter then being raised by his uncle. The author draws parallels between the lives of the protagonist and his father, creating a sort of duality and foreshadowing of events that is reminiscent of classic Greek tragedy and myth, resulting in an exploration of fate, guilt, destiny, and the machinations of the human heart. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 9781331645337_0
