"Great Porter Square: A Mystery" by B. L. Farjeon is a mystery novel written in the late 19th century. The story centers around the tragic murder of Mr. Holdfast, which occurs shortly after a family crisis involving his son, Frederick. As the narrative unfolds, the lives of Mrs. Holdfast and a young woman named Becky intertwine, revealing secrets and connections that spark intrigue and suspicion in their search for the truth. The opening portion of the narrative introduces Lydia Holdfast, a woman anxiously awaiting her husband's return. While she eagerly anticipates holding her newborn, complications arise with the news of her husband's unexpected silence and the subsequent discovery of a murder in Great Porter Square. As Lydia grapples with mounting anxiety about her husband's fate, she remains unaware of the implications of the murder that may directly link to him. Her friend tries to provide reassurance, but circumstances compel Lydia to take action, delving into the strange occurrences of the murder as she hopes to uncover the fate of her missing husband. Meanwhile, Becky's journey begins as she navigates her own feelings and suspicions, setting the stage for a complex web of deception, love, and mystery. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
