| Summary | "Mount Royal: A Novel. Volume 1 of 3" by M. E. Braddon is a work of fiction written in the late 19th century. This novel follows the lives of Christabel Courtenay and her aunt, Mrs. Tregonell, as they navigate themes of love, grief, and societal expectations, notably in relation to Captain Hamleigh, a widower whose past looms over the present. The setting of Mount Royal serves as a picturesque backdrop, complementing the interplay of emotion and intrigue among the characters. The opening of the novel introduces us to deep familial bonds and a wistful exploration of past loves as Christabel listens intently to her aunt's reflections on her late fiancé, Captain Hamleigh, and the sadness surrounding his deceased wife. Their conversation is interspersed with humor and youthful candor, which highlights Christabel's delicate innocence and growing curiosity about love and marriage. As Aunt Diana recounts her memories, including her hopes for Christabel's future and the arrival of Captain Hamleigh’s son, Angus, the narrative sets a tone of nostalgia mixed with underlying tension and possibility, creating a foundation for the emotional conflicts to unfold throughout the story.
