| Summary | "Torwood's Trust: A Novel (Vol. 1 of 3)" by Evelyn Everett-Green is a fictional work written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around Philip Debenham, an eighteen-year-old boy who finds himself in a precarious situation due to his uncle's scheming, forcing him into a clerkship instead of the outdoor life he craves. The narrative weaves themes of family intrigue and deceit, particularly involving Uncle Belassis, who seems eager to thwart Phil's chances at happiness and independence. At the start of the novel, we meet Philip, deeply frustrated by a letter from his uncle that changes the course of his life. His ensuing outrage is compounded by revelations from his sister Maud about their family dynamics, which suggest nefarious intentions on Belassis' part regarding their inheritance. The introduction of Tor, Philip’s loyal friend, hints at potential adventures as Tor proposes they escape the clutches of their overbearing relatives and embark on life together. Additionally, the opening chapters begin to paint a picture of the larger family saga, setting the stage for conflict and resilience as events unfold around them.
