Summary | “Initials Only” by Anna Katharine Green is a detective novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around the mysterious death of a prominent young woman, Miss Challoner, which initially appears to be a sudden health failure, but the subsequent investigation leads to suspicions of foul play. The narrative follows several characters including the curious couple, George and Laura Anderson, who become entangled in the unfolding mystery, particularly as they witness odd behavior from a man who may be connected to the case. At the start of the novel, the Andersons find themselves in a crowded street near a hotel when they notice a man washing his hands in the snow—a behavior that piques their curiosity. Shortly after, they hear commotion from the hotel indicating a tragedy has occurred. They learn that Miss Challoner has suddenly died in the hotel, and as George becomes involved in the investigation, the couple is determined to uncover the truth behind her death. The opening sets the stage for the complex interplay of characters and clues that will dominate the narrative as they venture deeper into the mystery of the young woman's unfortunate demise, emphasizing themes of curiosity, societal intrigue, and the darker aspects of human nature.
