About this audiobook
One of the masterpieces by Horatio. The book narrates the hardships faced by a child Hector after the death of his father. His uncle provides false evidence to prove him as an adopted child and thus he could not be entitled to inherit the estate. With the ups and downs the story brilliantly captivates the imagination of the readers.
