The Crime and the Criminal
Produced by Charles Bowen, from page scans provided by Google Books
"The Crime and the Criminal" by Richard Marsh is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story centers around Thomas Tennant, whose life spirals into chaos after a violent incident involving a woman on a train. As Tennant grapples with the implications of this encounter and the shadow of potential crime, he faces ominous interactions with a blackmailer who holds critical information about the event. At the start of the novel, Thomas Tennant travels alone from Brighton, leaving behind a troubled family situation. His journey takes a dark turn when a woman, who he once believed to be dead, unexpectedly confronts him in the train compartment. Their ensuing quarrel results in her falling from the moving train, leading to her tragic death. Conflicted by his chaotic emotions and a sense of fear, Tennant attempts to conceal the situation, which ignites a series of harrowing events involving blackmail and accusations as he struggles to maintain his innocence while protecting his family from the fallout.
