The novel «The Sorrows of Satan» was published in 1895 and became one of the brightest British bestsellers — more than 25,000 copies of the book were sold in the first week alone. Humiliating, burdensome poverty drives the talented writer Geoffrey...
Tempest insane. He received a «gentle upbringing» and a university education, considered himself a gentleman, and literature — his calling, but in the midst of a harsh winter, starving and shivering from the cold, he could no longer concentrate on his work. In a moment of despair, a noble prince, Lucio Rimanez, appears on the doorstep of his small room with amazing news of an unexpected inheritance. Five million pounds sterling and a new friend of noble blood radically change the life of the young literator — high society, critical acclaim, marriage to the most coveted bride in England... But amidst the glory and pleasures, day by day, the weight of vague premonitions grows. Who is this magnificent Lord Rimanez, so easily gliding through life, and what will be the consequence for Geoffrey Tempest of choosing momentary, deceptive happiness?
