"Lucretia — Complete" by Baron Edward Bulwer Lytton Lytton is the story of a young woman, Lucretia. Growing up, she was never denied anything she wanted, a habit she assumed would carry through the rest of her life. Unfortunately, she's the sort of woman who is willing to go to drastic measures to ensure that is the case. Even if it means turning to the use of poison for assistance in getting her way.
