| Summary | "The Master of Aberfeldie, Volume 2 (of 3)" by James Grant is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. The story unfolds in a Scottish estate named Dundargue, focusing primarily on the tensions and intrigues surrounding the main character, Allan Graham, and his love for Olive Raymond, set against a backdrop of secrets, rivalries, and the threat of betrayal from Hawke Holcroft, a dastardly antagonist motivated by jealousy and greed. The opening of the novel centers around the aftermath of Allan's impending departure from Dundargue, where he remains with guests, including the antagonistic Holcroft. As the narrative begins to unfold, readers witness Allan's romantic interlude with Olive—a fleeting escape marred by an ominous atmosphere filled with Holcroft's envy and malice. The passage elaborates on the fragility of romantic relationships, the rising tension between Allan and Holcroft, and hints at a dark encounter that will lead to Allan's unforeseen peril. The emotional tone balances between the idyllic moments of young love and the threatening shadows cast by Holcroft's sinister intentions, setting the stage for intrigue and suspense in this Victorian tale.
