| Summary | "The Plague of the Heart" by Francis Prevost is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story unfolds in a politically tense setting, likely during British colonial rule in India, and revolves around Captain Nevile Terrington and Mrs. Rose Chantry as they navigate the complexities of personal and national conflicts. The narrative likely explores themes of duty, honor, and the dynamics of male-female relationships within the context of war and colonialism. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to Captain Terrington and Mrs. Chantry, who display contrasting attitudes towards the impending Durbar that could lead to potential danger. Terrington is portrayed as a hard-nosed soldier with a deep understanding of the treacherous political landscape, while Rose, vibrant and impulsive, is eager for excitement and social engagements. As they interact, the tension between their differing perspectives sets the stage for the challenges they will face, including the looming threat of betrayal and violence from local tribes. The opening establishes not just a personal connection but foreshadows the larger conflicts that will unfold in Sar, hinting at an exciting blend of military strategy and emotional entanglements in a gripping historical setting.
