Summary "The Zeppelin's Passenger" by E. Phillips Oppenheim is a novel likely written in the early 20th century, set during World War I. The story begins with a group of characters, including Captain Griffiths and Helen Fairclough, discussing a mysterious Zeppelin incident, sparking a mixture of curiosity and concern. The narrative seems to center around themes of espionage, loyalty, and romantic entanglements against the backdrop of the war, particularly focusing on Helen and her fiancé, Major Felstead, who has been reported missing. The opening of the book takes place in a comfortable library where tea is being served to guests. The conversation reveals concern over a Zeppelin's observation car that has landed unexpectedly. The characters engage in light banter, yet an underlying tension is present due to the war and the fate of Major Felstead, who has been captured. Helen expresses anguish over her fiancé's situation, while Captain Griffiths appears to be harboring deeper, more personal feelings towards Helen. This mix of ordinary concerns and the strain of war sets the stage for a story intertwined with suspense and emotional depth as the narrative unfolds. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
