by Winston Graham

Overview

Warleggan presents the gripping fourth novel in Winston Graham's classic Poldark saga, the major TV series from Masterpiece on PBS.

When his old flame Elizabeth Warleggan re-enters his life, Ross is tested like never before. But soon, his wife Demelza retaliates, becoming dangerously involved with a handsome Scottish cavalry officer of her own.

With the looming threat of bankruptcy and scandal, the Poldarks now face the possibility of disaster on all fronts. Will they be able to keep it together before everything falls apart?

A tale of romance, revenge, and risk, Winston Graham's Warleggan brings you characters and rivalries you won’t soon forget.
