"Young Lord Stranleigh: A Novel" by Robert Barr is a fictional narrative written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around Lord Stranleigh, a young nobleman seemingly indifferent to the world around him, living a life of leisure supported by a substantial income. The plot begins with his interaction with young Peter Mackeller, who is on a desperate quest for assistance amid a financial crisis involving a dubious mining venture in West Africa. At the start of the novel, Stranleigh's languid lifestyle contrasts sharply with the earnestness of Mackeller, who seeks his help to save his father's stock brokerage amid allegations of a mining swindle. Their meeting reveals Stranleigh's detachment from serious matters; however, the urgency of Mackeller's plea pulls Stranleigh into a world of high stakes and moral dilemmas. As the narrative unfolds, it becomes clear that Stranleigh, despite his ennui, finds himself unwittingly embroiled in a financial battle that challenges his indifference and reveals a potential for action and intrigue that has yet to be tapped.

Reading ease score: 79.0 (7th grade). Fairly easy to read.
