Blind Love by Wilkie Collins

"Blind Love" is an unjustly neglected work of Collin's later period. Filled with typical Collins romance and high adventure, the tale ranges from rural Ireland through the teeming streets of London to a sleepy village in Belgium. It is a story of a secret society of Irish rebels, of sinister plots, of revenge and bloody murder and loyalty unto death. Above all, it is a sometimes disturbing, sometimes humorous, frequently moving story of the "blind love" of Irish Henley for the notorious Lord Harry Norland - and the trap into which her unwavering devotion gradually and inexorably leads her.
