A historical novel written in the late 19th century. The narrative revolves around Captain Frank Mallett, a military officer who grapples with feelings of rivalry and superstition, particularly concerning a former schoolmate who seems to shadow and outshine him at every turn. Set against the backdrop of the British military efforts during the Indian Rebellion, the novel explores themes of honor, competition, and the personal costs of war. The opening of the book sets the stage in the drawing room of Greendale where Captain Mallett reflects on his past struggles with a rival from school, hinting at a deeper emotional turmoil that influences his present. His conversation with Bertha, Sir John Greendale's daughter, reveals Mallett’s readiness to face the upcoming military engagements, despite the haunting memory of his past defeats. As he prepares to re-engage with the battlefield, the narrative foreshadows significant conflict not only with external enemies in India but also with personal demons tied to his rival's shadow, setting a tense, compelling tone for the unfolding drama of war and personal growth.
