| Summary | "Who?" by Elizabeth Kent is a mystery novel written in the early 20th century. The story begins with Cyril Crichton, who returns to England after a long absence and finds himself embroiled in a peculiar situation involving a mysterious young lady in a train compartment. The narrative suggests themes of identity and deception, with the main character quickly drawn into a web of intrigue as he aids the young woman, who may be entangled in a scandalous plot. At the start of the story, Cyril arrives in Newhaven and unexpectedly stumbles upon a distressed girl, who falls into his lap after he jumps into her train compartment. The girl, unbeknownst to him, is deeply alarmed by his surname, prompting an unusual conversation filled with ambiguity. As the story unfolds, it becomes evident that the girl is fleeing something dire, as police are searching the train for an escaped criminal accused of murder. Cyril chooses to protect her, claiming her as his wife to deflect suspicion, setting off a chain of events that could entangle him in the dangerous aftermath of the murder mystery involving Lady Wilmersley, who also goes missing. The opening establishes a gripping tension between innocence and guilt, as well as the potentially life-altering consequences of Cyril's decision to uncover the truth.
