| Summary | "Charred Wood" by Myles Muredach is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story introduces us to Mark Griffin, a disillusioned Englishman wandering through New England, who becomes intrigued by a mysterious young woman, Ruth Atheson, that he sees emerging from a concealed entrance in a tree. The narrative unfolds in a small village, particularly around the enigmatic estate of Killimaga, where Mark's curiosity attracts the attention of local characters, including a detective and a priest, all of whom are entangled in Ruth's secretive life. The opening of the novel establishes a quaint yet suspenseful tone, as Mark lounges in a field and observes the passing of a beautiful woman, setting in motion a series of events filled with intrigue. This woman, later revealed to be Ruth, quickly becomes the center of Mark's thoughts, drawing him into a world of mystery involving a potential scandal. As he learns about the hidden truth surrounding Ruth and a pursuing detective, Mark grapples with his growing affection for her amidst suspicions and societal expectations. The narrative promises a blend of romance and intrigue, compelling readers to unravel the secrets of Ruth's identity and the dynamics at play in her life.
