| Summary | "The Search Party" by George A. Birmingham is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around Dr. Lucius O'Grady, a dispensary doctor in the rural Irish community of Clonmore, who grapples with societal status, financial troubles, and a mysterious new tenant named Guy Theodore Red. The narrative explores themes of friendship, secrecy, and the eccentricities of human nature through the interactions of O'Grady and the cast surrounding him, characterized by their vivid personalities and gossip-driven perceptions. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to Dr. O'Grady, who feels like an outsider in Clonmore's high society due to his humble profession. He is often summoned to dine at the estate of Lord Manton but remains overlooked by the upper crust. The intrigue begins with the arrival of Mr. Red, the enigmatic tenant of the dilapidated Rosivera house, who keeps to himself and raises curiosity among the locals. As the plot unfolds, O'Grady gets entangled in a series of unusual events revolving around Red, including an unexpected night visit for medical assistance after an accident, leading to a mix of apprehension and dark humor in an ever-deepening investigation into the secretive life of his new neighbor.
