Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"The Fog Princes" by Florence Warden is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story is set against the backdrop of Llancader Castle and revolves around the Earl of St. Austell and his three daughters, particularly focusing on the dynamics of love and social class within the gentry. Central characters include the sisters Elizabeth, Marion, and Kate, as well as Rees Pennant, the handsome son of a local captain, whose relationships are set against the expectations of their respective social standings. The opening of the novel introduces the reader to Llancader Castle and the Earl's family. We learn of the Earl's demeanor as a landlord and his wife’s disappointment without a son, leading to various discussions among the daughters about social class and marriage prospects, particularly regarding Marion’s feelings for Rees. The narrative sets the stage as Lady Marion becomes embroiled in intrigue involving the librarian Amos Goodhare and the potential discovery of a hidden treasure related to the castle's history during a siege. This premise hints at adventure, familial tension, and social commentary that may unravel in subsequent chapters.
