"A Sicilian Romance" was Ann Radcliffe's second novel published in 1790.

"A Sicilian Romance" centres on a pair of sisters, Julia and Emilia, living in Sicily. Their mother is supposed to have died, and they are raised in part by their cruel stepmother.

Julia runs away again and hides out in a confusing system of subterranean caverns. After much intrigue involving flight and pursuit, Julia ends up in an uninhabited wing of her family¿s home. She finds out that her mother...
