Summary "Kuparilipas" by J. S. Fletcher is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows Alvery Craye, an artist who, while attempting to traverse the Scottish Highlands in April, finds himself lost in a snowstorm and stumbles upon an old tower house called Kelpieshaw. There, he encounters intriguing characters, including the beautiful Madrasia and her guardian, James Parslewe, who harbors a mysterious past. At the start of the narrative, Craye reflects on his birthday and his ill-fated journey across the rugged terrain. As he fights against the worsening snow, he discovers the unusual tower house, leading to his unexpected invitation inside. The inhabitants, Madrasia and her stern guardian, reveal hints of a rich backstory intertwined with historical artifacts, particularly a copper box bearing a unique motto. This opening sets the stage for a blend of adventure, mystery, and romantic intrigue, inviting readers to explore the secrets encapsulated within Kelpieshaw and its residents.
