Abstract:
British novelist Anthony Hope is best remembered for his swashbuckling action-adventure novels, most of which include a side dish of budding romance. Father Stafford sets aside the sword play and daring last-minute escapes and focuses instead on the thrills and perils of a complicated love quadrangle. This one involves a betrothed couple, one of their female friends, and a young Anglican priest who is struggling to maintain his position of moral authority.
