Study in Shadows

William John Locke

Among the mixture of people spending the summer in a pension (boarding house) in Geneva are Felicia, a 20-year-old, and Katherine (30) who become good friends. Another person in the pension is Mr. Chetwynd, an elderly gentleman, whose handsome son Raine comes from Oxford to visit him – and causes a stir in the company, particularly with Felicia and Katherine who both fall for him. The book follows the developing relationships between these main characters. (Summary by Simon Evers) (4 hr 52 min)
