The story unfolds in London, where we meet Kenelm Chillingly, who has recently returned after an absence of over a year and a half. The narrative explores themes of ambition, societal expectation, and personal identity through the experiences of Kenelm and his interactions with various characters, including his cousin Gordon and Lady Glenalvon, as he navigates the complexities of the social elite. At the start of the book, we find Kenelm at a social gathering hosted by Lord Beaumanoir, where political intrigues are afoot as rival factions discuss the potential for career advancements within Parliament. Kenelm appears somewhat withdrawn and contemplative, contrasted with the ambitious young Gordon, who eagerly seeks a political career yet struggles with the financial burdens of political candidacy. The opening section introduces us to key players in this social milieu, highlighting their distinct aspirations and perspectives on politics, social order, and personal ambitions, shaping the backdrop for Kenelm's own journey of self-discovery amid the expectations placed on him.
