"Trevethlan: A Cornish Story. Volume 2 (of 3)" by William Davy Watson is a historical novel written in the mid-19th century. Set in Cornwall, the story revolves around the orphans Randolph and Helen Trevethlan, who return home to their ancestral castle after a period away. They face dark emotions and burdens of expectation, navigating tensions both personal and societal as they uncover impending family and community conflicts. The opening of the novel recounts the return of Randolph and Helen to Trevethlan Castle, where they are met with a somber atmosphere in stark contrast to their childhood memories. As they grapple with grief and uncertainty about their futures, we see Randolph’s obsession with his enigmatic mother and the unresolved familial strife that surrounds their lineage. The arrival of a letter announcing the unwelcome news of a legal dispute sets the stage for a larger conflict involving the Pendarrel family, introducing a web of intrigue that intertwines with local discontent and themes of honor, legacy, and identity in 19th-century Cornwall.
