A Dangerous Fortune by Ken Follett

Ken Follett's A Dangerous Fortune has treachery, deceit, love, and a little mystery in it. Historical novels always intrigue me and this one does not fail in that department. It begins at a boarding school in 1866 England with a drowning. Following the lives of several of the characters that were present or involved, the drowning has a great impact on the lives of these boys. You will absolutely love to hate a few of the characters. Follett does a great job of allowing you to travel back in time and get emotionally wrapped up in the characters lives.
