| Summary | "From Now On" by Frank L. Packard is a novel written in the early 20th century. The book follows Dave Henderson, a man entrenched in the world of betting and racing, who faces a moral dilemma as he discovers a chance to seize one hundred thousand dollars in cash from the wealthy Martin K. Tydeman. The narrative explores themes of temptation, ethics, and the impact of a person's choices on their destiny. The opening of the story introduces a chaotic scene at a racetrack where Dave Henderson is confronted by Bookie Skarvan, who is in dire straits after a series of losses. Skarvan convinces Henderson that he must retrieve a substantial amount of money from Tydeman to resolve his financial woes. As Henderson races to meet this challenge, he reflects on his life, his struggles, and the allure of the cash, all while grappling with the implications of what it would mean to double-cross someone who offers him that money in trust. Ultimately, he contemplates a plan to acquire the funds, setting in motion a sequence of events that could change his life forever. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
