| Summary | "A Woman Intervenes" by Robert Barr is a novel written during the late 19th century, specifically in 1896. The story revolves around the intricate interplay of personal motives and professional rivalry in the world of journalism and mining. The main character, Jennie Brewster, is a skilled reporter for the New York Argus who is tasked with extracting crucial information from two English men, Wentworth and Kenyon, as they conduct assessments of mining properties in Canada for a London syndicate. The opening of the novel introduces a tense atmosphere within the Argus newsroom, where the managing editor is frustrated by a reporter’s failure to secure important documents. Jennie Brewster is summoned and given the challenge of traveling to Europe to obtain the reports from Wentworth and Kenyon, who are already on their way.
