In the Dead of Night: A Novel. Volume 2 (of 3)
Charles Bowen
"In the Dead of Night: A Novel. Volume 2 (of 3)" by T. W. Speight is a fictional narrative written in the late 19th century. This installment follows the tumultuous lives of its characters as they navigate through love, deception, and the justice system surrounding a murder trial. The story seems to heavily feature Mr. Lionel Dering, who is embroiled in a murder scandal, alongside interactions with Edward Cope and Jane Culpepper as subplots involving class, romance, and intrigue develop around them." "The opening of this volume introduces us to the critical "Eve of the Trial," highlighting Mr. Edward Cope's reluctance to leave for New York and his strained engagement with Jane Culpepper. Constrained by familial expectations, Edward struggles with his feelings regarding his engagement, showing a clear preference for someone else, Miss Moggs. Meanwhile, Jane grapples with her secret feelings for Lionel Dering, who awaits trial for murder. The setting establishes tension as Lionel prepares for his imminent trial while the court proceedings hang over him. Following a brief overview of characters, the narrative hints at the intertwining fates of the individuals involved, particularly as they prepare for the upcoming challenging events."
