"Rupert of Hentzau: From The Memoirs of Fritz Von Tarlenheim" by Anthony Hope is a historical novel written during the late 19th century. The story serves as a sequel to "The Prisoner of Zenda," following the scheming and adventures of Rupert of Hentzau, a cunning villain, as well as the political intrigues surrounding the throne of Ruritania. The narrative is largely centered on the characters of Fritz von Tarlenheim, the loyal servant, and the complicated relationship between the king and Queen Flavia, as treachery and old loyalties come into play. The opening of the novel sets a tense atmosphere, revealing that while King Rudolf is back on his throne, the threat of Rupert of Hentzau still looms large. As Fritz converses with Colonel Sapt, it becomes evident that Rupert, although banished, is scheming from afar, hoping to return to Ruritania. The story delves into themes of loyalty, love, and betrayal, as the characters navigate personal and political turmoil. A notable moment occurs when the queen expresses her yearning for closure with a letter to her former love, Rudolf Rassendyll, setting off a chain of events that rekindles old tensions and brings danger close to home. This opening introduces readers to a richly woven tale filled with intrigue and emotional depth. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
