Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"The Lion's Mouse" by C. N. Williamson and A. M. Williamson is a fictional novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around Roger Sands, a hardened yet principled corporation lawyer, who finds himself embroiled in a mysterious and dangerous situation involving a young woman named Beverley White. As the narrative unfolds, themes of love, trust, and intrigue surface against a backdrop of suspenseful incidents and often perilous encounters. The opening portion of the book introduces Roger aboard the Santa Fé Limited train, where he encounters Beverley, who is fleeing from an unspecified danger. She implores Roger to help her by keeping her in his stateroom to evade a man she fears. Roger, captivated by her beauty and the urgency of her plight, agrees to pretend she is his cousin. As they navigate the complexities of her situation, Roger becomes increasingly protective, and a bond forms between them. From the very start, the narrative sets the stage for a gripping tale of romance intertwined with a sense of danger, igniting curiosity about the motivations and past of both characters.
