Summary | "The Master of Aberfeldie, Volume 1 (of 3)" by James Grant is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story unfolds in the Scottish Highlands and centers around Allan Graham, the Master of Aberfeldie, and his complex relationship with his cousin, Olive Raymond. As Allan returns from military service, the narrative explores themes of love, duty, societal expectations, and the constraints posed by a peculiar will that binds Olive's fate to his. At the start of the novel, readers are introduced to Allan and his father, Lord Aberfeldie, during a deer-stalking excursion. Their conversation reveals a sense of tension surrounding Allan's impending reunion with Olive, who he hasn't seen in years and with whom he is expected to marry due to her father's will. This will places significant pressure on Olive, who resents being bound to Allan and struggles against the implications of her family's expectations. As Allan experiences conflicting feelings of attraction and duty, the opening chapters set the stage for a romance fraught with emotional stakes and the shadows of the past lingering over the present.
