Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"The End of Her Honeymoon" by Marie Belloc Lowndes is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around Nancy and John Dampier, a young couple enjoying the final evening of their honeymoon in Paris, steeped in love and new beginnings. Their seemingly romantic getaway takes an unsettling turn as mysterious and unusual occurrences foreshadow complications in their new life together. At the start of the narrative, we are introduced to Nancy and John as they navigate the vibrant streets of Paris, culminating in their arrival at Hôtel Saint Ange. The atmosphere is magical, filled with hope and promise. However, a strange mishap occurs when their horse-drawn carriage halts unexpectedly, hinting at the troubles ahead. The couple's intimate moments are juxtaposed with a sudden sense of foreboding, heightened by Nancy's unease regarding her unfamiliar surroundings and growing fears for her husband's well-being after he is unexpectedly unresponsive the following morning. The tension escalates as they encounter the mysterious Hôtel Poulain, leading to misunderstandings and an unsettling revelation that leaves Nancy anxious about Jack’s absence and the hotel staff's dubious assertions regarding their arrival.
