Summary "The Duplicate Death" by Arthur Charles Fox-Davies is a mystery novel written in the early 20th century. The book explores a complex web of identities and intrigues surrounding the deaths of two women, including an actress named Dolores Alvarez and an actress presumed to be related to her named Evangeline Stableford. The narrative involves themes of suspicion, hidden pasts, and the unraveling of a murder mystery that connects these two women in unexpected ways. The opening of the book introduces readers to the character of Lord Madeley, who leads a secluded life steeped in scientific pursuits until he unexpectedly marries one of the beautiful Sisters Alvarez, igniting societal gossip. After a short marriage marked by a tragic incident, the focus shifts to the mysterious death of Lady Madeley's sister, which is ruled a suicide but leaves lingering questions. Fast forward, a crime lawyer, Ashley Tempest, becomes captivated by the unsolved mystery of Dolores's demise. He is drawn into a new case when another beautiful actress, Evangeline Stableford, dies under eerily similar circumstances, prompting him to investigate the possibility of murder rather than suicide while examining the deeper connections between these two strikingly similar women.
