Lady's Walk

Mr Temple had met the Campbell family during travel in Switzerland, where lost luggage and bad hotels had failed to damage their easy friendship. Your brothers promised grouse and a quiet visit. You step into this one-chapter preview with Mr Temple at the center, where choices turn on the people, promises, and pressure already in the room. The steps ceased somewhere beyond the beeches, leaving the question of their next return with the darkening avenue. The chapter closes on a continuation question rather than resolving the novel's larger arc.
