"Devil's Dice" by William Le Queux is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around Stuart Ridgeway, a young man from a wealthy background, who undergoes a tumultuous emotional journey revolving around love, loss, and mystery. As he becomes infatuated with an enigmatic woman named Sybil, his life takes a dramatic turn, leading him into a world filled with secrets and peril. At the start of the novel, Ridgeway reflects on his past and shares his feelings of despair and longing. He recounts a fateful encounter with Sybil in a casino garden, where their brief yet intense connection ignites a whirlwind of passion and heartache. However, the mystery deepens as Sybil’s secretive nature hints at an approaching doom that haunts her. After their romantic escapades, Ridgeway is left shattered when he learns of her tragic fate shortly after a clandestine marriage ceremony. The opening chapters set the stage for a tale that promises intrigue and exploration of hidden truths, raising questions about love, identity, and the darkness that often lurks beneath the surface.
