"Branded" by Francis Lynde is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around Herbert Weyburn, a young man whose life takes a dramatic turn when he is falsely accused of embezzling money from a bank due to the deceitful actions of a trusted mentor and a beautiful but manipulative woman named Agatha Geddis. Faced with a corrupt legal system and the scorn of his former community, Weyburn must navigate the challenges of his conviction and find a way to clear his name and regain his place in society. The opening of "Branded" introduces the protagonist, Herbert Weyburn, as he reflects on his troubling promise to Agatha Geddis and the consequences of her father's wrongdoings at the Farmers' Bank. As he faces arrest for a crime he didn't commit, he recalls his past connections with the Geddis family and the beautiful but dangerous Agatha. Despite his innocence, Herbert realizes that the circumstances surrounding his case have already set him on a downward spiral. The chapter sets the stage for a gripping exploration of betrayal, the struggle for redemption, and the repercussions of choices made under pressure. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
