| Summary | "The Red Saint" by Warwick Deeping is a novel written in the early 20th century. It is set against the backdrop of a tumultuous period in England, involving themes of war, power, and the mystical connection between its characters and the land they inhabit. The central figure is Denise of the Hermitage, a woman revered as a saint and healer, who grapples with the chaos of the Barons’ War while navigating her own feelings for Aymery, a lord caught in the conflict. The opening of the story introduces Denise as she witnesses a distant fire amidst the unrest of a country on the brink of civil war. In the stillness of the beech wood, she reflects on the tension surrounding her, aware of the violence erupting across her homeland. As news of a fallen boy reaches her, she is pulled into the pain of loss and the shifting loyalties of those around her, including Waleran, the grieving father. The atmosphere is charged with impending conflict, as Denise must contend with her role as a healer and a compassionate figure in a world rife with turmoil and danger. The introduction effectively sets a tone of both vulnerability and strength, hinting at the complex relationships and moral dilemmas that will unfold throughout the narrative.
