"Guy Deverell, v. 2 of 2" by Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu is a novel written in the late 19th century. The book follows the complex character of Guy Deverell, intersecting his fate with that of various other intriguing figures, such as Lady Alice Redcliffe and Monsieur Varbarriere, as they navigate themes of mystery, family secrets, and the supernatural. At the start of the narrative, we are introduced to Lady Alice and the Bishop as they discuss the late Sir Harry Marlowe’s last wishes regarding a red box containing a secret of significant importance. This conversation highlights Lady Alice's mounting concerns over her missing son, Guy, while the sinister figure of Monsieur Varbarriere looms in the background, hinting at his intricate involvement in the unfolding drama. As she grapples with her fears and the potential significance of the mysterious box, tension rises, foreshadowing deeper revelations connected to family secrets and personal tragedies that will soon entangle them all. The opening thus sets a tone rife with suspense and intrigue, preparing the reader for a tale rich with generational conflict and hidden motives. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
