Paul Ferroll, a Tale

Paul Ferroll's first wife, Anne, was an evil bully of a woman, prone to abusing servants in the worst way you can imagine. Fitting with her vile nature, a servant or a neighbor or someone murdered her in her sleep. (It could have been anyone, you know. The window was wide open.) And who'd have thought poor Paul Ferroll would've married again so soon. . . ? A delightfully engaging classic by Caroline Clive.
