The story unfolds around the mysterious discovery of a woman's corpse on a desolate beach in New England, which sparks intrigue and leads various characters, including the protagonist Professor Chester Kent, into a deeper investigation. The narrative likely teeters between suspense and character-driven drama as secrets about the deceased and connections to her past start to emerge. At the start of the novel, the setting is established with a vivid description of Lonesome Cove, a secluded and foreboding area. A crowd gathers near the body of a woman washed ashore, which is discovered by Professor Kent who is visiting for a holiday. As the professor assesses the situation, conversations among the locals reveal oddities surrounding the body, particularly the presence of shackles, which incite questions regarding her identity and fate. The opening sets the stage for a mystery filled with coastal lore, local characters, and hints at a greater narrative involving crime and potentially untangled personal histories, piquing the reader’s curiosity about the eventual unraveling of these dark events.
