"Sons of Fire, Vol. I." by Mary Elizabeth Braddon is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story begins with Allan Carew, who is newly inheriting a country estate near the village of Matcham after the death of his bachelor uncle. As Allan acclimates to his new life, he contemplates the changes this inheritance brings, setting the stage for potential interactions with the local gentry and the relationships he may develop within this new social milieu. At the start of the novel, we follow Allan as he rides out for a day of hunting, filled with a sense of excitement and exploration. He is a stranger in the area, attempting to familiarize himself with his surroundings and the people he is about to meet. His attention is drawn to the locals who mistake him for Geoffrey Wornock, the owner of the local manor, raising questions about their striking resemblance. Through his interactions, we learn of Allan's introspection regarding his newfound status and the enchanting figure of Mrs. Wornock, Geoffrey’s mother, whose mysterious character captivates him. The opening sets a tone of curiosity and anticipation, hinting at deeper connections and the intricacies of social life in the countryside. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
