| Summary | "The Harlequin Opal: A Romance. Vol. 2 (of 3)" by Fergus Hume is a novel written in the late 19th century. The book continues the story of its main character, Jack Duval, as well as others embroiled in political and personal turmoil in Cholacaca. It delves into themes of love, ambition, and the clash between rebels and the established government. The opening of the story introduces a perilous journey aboard the yacht "The Bohemian", as its crew heads toward Acauhtzin to confront the insurgent leader Xuarez. Amidst the voyage, tension mounts over the political situation in Cholacaca, with Jack Duval determined to rescue his love, Dolores, who has been taken by Xuarez. As the yacht approaches the harbor, they navigate threats and hostility, reflecting the escalating conflict. Simultaneously, Jack faces imprisonment after a riot erupts, and he endures the psychological torment imposed by Xuarez, who seeks power and desires for Dolores. This sets the stage for an intricate tale of rivalry and romance framed within the chaos of rebellion. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
