Summary "The Clue" by Carolyn Wells is a mystery novel written in the early 20th century. Set against the backdrop of a stately mansion in the quaint town of Mapleton, it revolves around the enigmatic figure of Madeleine Van Norman, a beautiful and wealthy heiress on the verge of marrying Schuyler Carleton. The story deepens as it unfolds with themes of love, jealousy, and societal expectations, culminating in a tragic event that raises questions about the nature of her death. The beginning of the narrative introduces us to the characters and setting, establishing Madeleine as a proud, reserved woman engaged to the seemingly perfect man, Schuyler Carleton. However, cracks in this seemingly ideal relationship are highlighted by interactions with her cousin Tom Willard, who exhibits a deep affection for her and questions the sincerity of Schuyler's feelings. As tensions rise, Madeleine’s impending wedding looms over the story, creating anticipation. The narrative takes a dark turn with a chilling cry for help in the night, leading to the discovery of Madeleine's lifeless body, sparking intrigue and setting the stage for a crime investigation that questions whether her death was a tragic suicide or something more sinister.
