Edwards is a fictional narrative written in the late 19th century. The story seems to center around Chandos Hamilton, the protagonist who reflects on an episode from his youth involving a journey through the German countryside, a chance encounter with a fellow traveler named Gustav Bergheim, and the unfolding events surrounding their stay in a peculiar farmhouse. The book promises an exploration of adventure mixed with mystery, as the early chapters hint at darker themes lurking beneath the surface. At the start of the narrative, the protagonist sets the scene on a hot September day in an unspecified year, walking a dusty road in Würtemburg, Germany, and reflecting on his youthful days, previous romantic entanglements, and his sense of wandering. He encounters Gustav Bergheim, a friendly and talkative fellow traveler, and they share their thoughts and stories while walking towards the fair taking place in the village of Niedersdorf. As they approach the village, the presence of a vibrant fair suggests an air of festivity, yet when they reach the inn, it becomes clear that their night may lead to unforeseen dangers linked to the inn's unsavory hosts, heightening the tension and foreshadowing the dark turn their journey might take.
