| Summary | "In the Fog" by Richard Harding Davis is a novel written during the late 19th century. The story unfolds in the exclusive Grill Club in London, where the atmosphere is steeped in tradition and camaraderie among its members, who engage in lively conversations about the nature of adventure and their current societal roles. The narrative centers around a group of intriguing characters who discuss a notable crime that has baffled the police, setting the stage for a blend of mystery and social commentary. At the start of the novel, readers are introduced to the Grill Club, which serves as a backdrop for the characters' discussions. A foggy evening in London leads to the gathering of four members who, while dining together, engage in banter about the decline of romantic adventure in modern life. Amidst their conversation, they become captivated by the unexpected arrival of Lieutenant Ripley Sears, an American Naval Attache, who reveals he has witnessed a remarkable crime involving a murder and the mysterious disappearance of individuals linked to it. The tension escalates as Sears details his harrowing experience, setting the groundwork for a compelling murder mystery intertwined with themes of social status, duty, and intrigue.
