Summary "Double Crossed" by W. Douglas Newton is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story unfolds in a narrative filled with intrigue and adventure as it follows Clement Seadon, a young man who finds himself unintentionally entangled in a convoluted plot involving a charming heiress named Heloise Reys. The opening chapters set the stage for a classic conflict of good versus evil, as Seadon is thrust into a web of deception concerning Heloise's impending marriage to a rogue, Henry Gunning. The beginning of the novel introduces us to Clement Seadon, who is approached by Hartley Hard, a frantic lawyer, seeking his assistance to prevent Heloise from marrying Gunning, whom the lawyer believes is a swindler. Clement's initial bemusement turns into intrigue as he learns about Heloise's situation and her appealing demeanor. The chapter culminates with a sense of urgency as Clement grapples with the realization he must navigate through a treacherous environment filled with deception, all while trying to win Heloise's affection and protect her from impending danger. The stakes are raised as he recognizes the potential threat posed by an associated band of rogues, setting the tone for a thrilling adventure ahead. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
