| Summary | "Patricia at the Inn" by J. C. Snaith is a historical novel written in the early 20th century. This work follows the escapades of Charles Stuart, the future King Charles II, as he navigates the dangerous political landscape in England following the conflict at Worcester. The narrative is set against the backdrop of the English Civil War, emphasizing themes of loyalty, deception, and the trials of royalty. The opening portion of the narrative introduces readers to a desolate inn located on a wild coastline, run by an untrustworthy landlord, Gamaliel Hooker. On a cold wintry night, he receives unexpected guests, including a rugged mariner who seems to have connections to larger events beyond the inn's walls. As tensions rise with the arrival of soldiers seeking the fugitive King Charles, Gamaliel grapples with his greed and ambition, pondering the potential rewards of harboring this vital figure while balancing his fear of betrayal. The intrigue surrounding the inn and its unpredictable visitors sets up a thrilling and suspenseful tone for the unfolding story. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
