Sinopsis

''The Shadow of a Man'' is a novel written by Ernest William Hornung and published in 1901. The story revolves around the character of Felix Thurstan, a young man who is struggling to find his place in the world. Thurstan is haunted by the shadow of his father, a notorious criminal who was executed for his crimes. Despite his efforts to distance himself from his father?s legacy, Thurstan finds himself drawn into a life of crime and deception. Along the way, he meets a cast of characters, including a beautiful young woman named Rosamund, who challenges his beliefs and forces him to confront his past. The novel is a gripping tale of love, betrayal, and redemption, set against the backdrop of turn-of-the-century London. Hornung?s vivid descriptions of the city and its inhabitants bring the story to life, and his nuanced portrayal of Thurstan makes him a sympathetic and complex protagonist.
