Mr. Jervis, Vol. 2 (of 3)

A lively social narrative follows a young woman's introduction into a close-knit colonial social circle, where club life, balls, and picnics provide the backdrop for rivalries, flirtations, and strategic alliances. Polished manners and petty jealousies shape interactions as older hostesses and fashionable youths compete for influence, while candid friendships and comic misunderstandings reveal private motives. Interwoven episodes trace suitors' decisions, secret morning meetings, and escalating tensions that culminate in the exposure of a central man's true identity, prompting shifts in reputation and household arrangements.
