Wilkie Collins, a lawyer by training, was well-versed in the intricacies of Victorian marriage law, which he masterfully wove into the plot of "Husband and Wife."

Anna Sylvester, Blanche Lundy, Geoffrey Delamayne, and Arnold Brinkworth found themselves caught in the legal paradox of the so-called "Scottish marriage," whereby one could become husband and wife at any time simply by declaring their intention to marry in front of witnesses. Some had nefarious intentions, while others found themselves in this predicament by accident. "Husband and Wife" is a story of love, choice, and the struggle for justice in a world where law and morality don't always align.
