| Summary | "The Disappearance of Lady Frances Carfax" by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle is a captivating crime fiction story written during the early 20th century, set within the broader context of the Victorian era. The narrative revolves around the mysterious vanishing of Lady Frances Carfax, a woman of noble lineage, and the perilous journey undertaken by Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson to uncover the truth behind her disappearance. The investigation delves into themes of vulnerability, criminality, and the complexities of human relationships. In this engaging tale, Sherlock Holmes is approached by Miss Dobney, Lady Frances's concerned governess, who reveals that the lady has not communicated for an unsettling five weeks, a departure from her usual correspondence. Holmes learns that Lady Frances has recently traveled from the Hotel National at Lausanne and becomes embroiled in a web of intrigue involving her ex-maid, Marie Devine, and a sinister couple posing as noble figures. As the investigation unfolds, Holmes and Watson encounter deceit, danger, and desperation as they race against time to save Lady Frances from a terrible fate at the hands of her tormentors. Their journey leads them to a shocking grave plot where the stakes are life and death, culminating in a tense rescue that uncovers new depths of villainy.
