"Death in the Dusk" by Virgil Markham is a fictional novel written in the late 1920s. The story revolves around Alfred Bannerlee, who recounts a series of unsettling events that transpired during a wedding celebration in Wales at Highglen House, an old estate surrounded by dark legends and peculiar occurrences. As the narrative unfolds, themes of mystery, supernatural phenomena, and human folly emerge, along with a diverse cast of intriguing characters, including a mad parson and a veil of ominous secrets. At the start of the novel, we find Alfred Bannerlee in Highglen House, filled with anxiety and a sense of impending dread as he navigates the chaotic atmosphere of a wedding party. Amidst the festivities, he becomes aware of various tensions among the guests, particularly revolving around the mysterious absence of Sir Brooke Mortimer. As the night progresses, strange occurrences begin to unfold, including disconcerting cries from outside that draw the attention of all present, further heightening the suspense. As Bannerlee attempts to make sense of the chaos around him, the looming figure of Parson Lolly, a character shrouded in enigma, sets a tone of foreboding that suggests perilous adventures yet to come.
