A Tale of Two Cities
Authorship not stated
A horseman gallops out of a freezing November night to stop the Dover mail with a message for Jarvis Lorry of Tellson's Bank — you. The cryptic reply you send back, "recalled to life," unsettles even the messenger. At the inn, you wait for Lucie Manette, who believes her father died before she could know him, and tell her instead that Doctor Manette has survived eighteen years in a French prison — freed now, but so changed that he mends shoes and answers better to a number than his own name.
