Summary: "Rainbow's End" by Rex Beach is a novel likely written in the early 20th century. The narrative immerses readers in the lush landscape of Cuba, where the lives of the Varona family unfold against a backdrop of political turmoil, lost treasures, and shifting social dynamics. The main characters include Don Esteban Varona, a wealthy planter grappling with personal tragedy and hidden wealth, his stepmother Dona Isabel, whose greed leads her down a dark path, and Sebastian, the loyal slave whose past connects deeply with the family's secrets. The opening of "Rainbow's End" presents a vivid description of the idyllic Yumuri Valley, setting a scene of beauty that contrasts sharply with the unfolding drama of the Varona family. After the sudden death of his wife, Dona Rosa, Don Esteban grapples with grief while maintaining the enigmatic allure of a hidden treasure associated with his family's legacy. As Esteban's children, Esteban Jr. and Rosa, begin to grow up amid the tumult, tensions develop with his new wife, Dona Isabel, whose obsession with wealth clouds her judgment. Meanwhile, Sebastian, the slave, carries the knowledge of the treasure, setting in motion a series of events that intertwine loyalty, betrayal, and a quest for fortune against the rich backdrop of Cuba's historical landscape.
