Summary: "A Mediterranean Mystery" by Fred E. Wynne is a novel written in the early 20th century. The narrative begins with the protagonist, a middle-aged parson named Davoren, leading a comfortable yet routine life at his Sussex vicarage, which is soon disrupted by an unexpected telegram from his adventurous younger brother, Edmund. The plot seems to weave together elements of family dynamics, adventure, and the exploration of personal aspirations as the two brothers navigate their contrasting lives. The opening of this novel introduces us to the main character, Davoren, who is characterized by his scholarly tendencies and a quiet life, interspersed with his hobby of breeding homing pigeons. His tranquil existence is interrupted by the arrival of a telegram announcing the return of his brother, Edmund, who has a reputation for mischief and a tendency to live life on the edge. Davoren reflects on his family background and his complicated feelings towards Edmund, revealing a blend of concern, frustration, and familial affection. As the brothers reunite, they discuss Edmund’s recent escapades at sea and his partnership with a character named Captain Welfare, hinting at an adventure that intertwines with endearing moments and family tensions, setting the stage for the unfolding mystery.
