A novel written in the late 19th century. The story takes place in a picturesque village, focusing on the romantic entanglements of young characters, rooted in the social complexities of love, jealousy, and rivalry. Central to the tale are the young men Horace Frere and Robert Awdrey, who find themselves competing for the affections of the beautiful Hetty Armitage, resulting in tragic consequences. The opening of the book introduces the idyllic setting of the village and the Red Doe inn, where two undergraduates, Frere and Everett, are enjoying their summer days. Focus shifts to Hetty, who is caught in a web of affection and rivalry—she juggles her feelings between the passionate Frere, who is determined to proclaim his love, and Awdrey, who behaves honorably and offers a more stable affection. As the storyline unfolds, tensions rise, leading to an explosive confrontation driven by jealousy and misunderstanding that culminates in violent tragedy, leaving both Hetty and the men entwined in a dilemma that challenges their loyalties and morality.
