Miss Mackenzie

After fifteen years nursing your invalid brother, you waited outside the room where his latest will was opened. Walter has left you everything, Margaret: the freehold, the savings, and more than eight hundred a year. You step into this one-chapter preview with Susanna Mackenzie at the center, where choices turn on the people, promises, and pressure already in the room. Your bag holds one introduction to Mr Stumfold and another to society; which world do we open first? The chapter closes on a continuation question rather than resolving the novel's larger arc.
