Summary: "The Clock and the Key" by A. H. Vesey is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story unfolds in the enchanting city of Venice and centers around the characters Richard Hume and Jacqueline Quintard, who are navigating the complexities of love, ambition, and the allure of their surroundings. Richard, an American who has spent years in Venice, grapples with his identity and feelings for Jacqueline, while hints of mystery about lost jewels and a peculiar clock weave through their interactions.
