Thoits is a mystery novel written in the late 19th century. The book revolves around a love story intertwined with a shocking murder in a small town, featuring characters such as Derrick Ames and Helen Hathaway, who find their lives disrupted by fate and crime. As the narrative unfolds, themes of love, ambition, and revenge are explored against the backdrop of a community thrown into chaos by a brutal act. The beginning of the story introduces readers to Derrick Ames and Helen Hathaway, who are lovers idling on a sunny afternoon in Vermont. They discuss their frustrations with their small-town lives, hinting at their yearning for adventure and freedom. Derrick, facing opposition from Helen's father regarding their relationship, decides to seek him out, but upon his return from this encounter, he appears shaken and urges Helen to leave town with him.
