"A Court of Inquiry" by Grace S. Richmond is a novel written in the early 20th century. It revolves around the lives of several characters who converge at a rural home, interacting through a series of social gatherings. The story is marked by the distinct personalities of the characters, including the amusing Skeptic, the insightful Philosopher, and a variety of female guests with their own unique traits and quirks. At the start of the narrative, the host of the home prepares for a visit from a new guest, Althea, while reflecting on her previous visitors and the personalities they each brought with them.
