Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"Pelham — Volume 01" by Baron Edward Bulwer Lytton Lytton is a novel published in 1828. This silver fork novel follows Henry Pelham, a young dandy, through his adventures in Paris, London, and Cheltenham's fashionable society. What begins as a light-hearted tale of high society transforms into a Gothic murder mystery when Pelham's friend is accused of killing a man. Pelham must find the true murderer to save his friend from execution, creating an early forerunner to the detective novel genre.
