| Summary | "Out of the Ashes" by Ethel Watts Mumford Grant is a fiction novel presumably written in the early 20th century. It delves into themes of ambition, blackmail, and the interplay between art and business through the experiences of its main character, Marcus Gard, a powerful financier. The narrative explores his complex relationships with Mrs. Martin Marteen, a determined woman with a shadowy agenda, which intertwines with the world of high society and clandestine dealings. The opening of the novel introduces Marcus Gard, who is deep in contemplation over his prized possessions while grappling with thoughts of destruction and reconstruction. His focus shifts when Mrs. Marteen arrives unannounced, claiming she wants to discuss an art piece but revealing a more dubious motive—she has letters that could compromise him. This unexpected meeting leads to a tense negotiation where Gard must confront his past actions and the manipulative power of Marteen, suggesting a battle of wits and moral dilemmas. As Gard navigates this complex situation, the atmosphere thickens with suspense and intrigue regarding the implications of their association. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
