"A Son of Ishmael: A Novel" by L.T. Meade is a work of fiction likely written in the late 19th century. The story centers around Nancy Follett, a young woman living in isolation with her father, Dr. Follett, in a gloomy house known as the Grange. As her father's health declines, a mysterious romance develops between Nancy and Adrian Rowton, a man who appears in her life at a time of great emotional turmoil, bringing both hope and underlying secrets that shape their relationship. The opening portion introduces us to the dismal life of Nancy and her father, revealing their reclusive nature and hinting at a tragic past, including the murder of Nancy's brother. The narrative builds tension as Adrian Rowton becomes a pivotal figure in Nancy's life, offering affection and support as her father's condition worsens. The old man's obsession with avenging his son's death looms over Nancy, complicating her burgeoning romance and setting the stage for conflicts of loyalty, love, and the quest for vengeance. The emotional depth and sense of foreboding establish a compelling atmosphere, drawing readers into Nancy's complex world filled with love, sorrow, and the weight of family secrets.
