The Antiquary (Barnes & Noble Digital Library) 

Published in 1816, and set during the wars with revolutionary France, this novel—Scott’s personal favorite of all his works—features a mysterious young man, Lovel, whose arrival at the Scottish seaside town of Fairport exposes long-buried secrets and crimes involving the guilt-ridden Earl of Glenallan and a beautiful young woman, Isabella Wardour.
