Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"Doctor Izard" by Anna Katharine Green is a novel written in the late 19th century. It revolves around the mysterious and complex character of Dr. Izard, a skilled physician who lives a somewhat reclusive life, as well as the intertwining fates of various individuals in the small town of Hamilton. The narrative explores themes of mortality, secrets, and the significant impact of past events on the present. The opening of "Doctor Izard" introduces a dramatic scene set in a hospital's Ward 13, where a nurse attends to two patients, both on the brink of death. One of these patients, the older man on the left, is gravely ill, while the man on the right appears to be in a deep apathy. Their situation shifts when a mysterious stranger visits the ward with a proposition involving a lucrative sum of money and a dying man's will meant for his daughter, Lucy. This encounter sets the stage for a series of events that will reveal the hidden connections between the characters and their pasts, all while establishing a sense of intrigue surrounding Dr. Izard himself.
