Summary "In the Mahdi's Grasp" by George Manville Fenn is a historical novel likely written during the late 19th century. The story revolves around a young army officer named Harry Frere, who has been captured and enslaved during the turbulent wars in the Soudan. The plot thickens as his friends, including a skilled surgeon, undertake a perilous journey to rescue him from the stronghold of the Mahdi, navigating through the chaos of battle and deception in their quest to set him free. The beginning of the novel introduces us to the characters involved in Harry's rescue, particularly focusing on his friends in London who are deeply concerned about his fate. Doctor Morris, a thoughtful and determined figure, along with Professor Landon, passionately discuss Harry's capture and the implications of their plans to save him. As they prepare for their journey to Cairo and beyond, they confront various challenges, including the potential dangers they may face in the Soudan. The narrative sets an intriguing tone of suspense and camaraderie among the characters, suggesting a mix of adventure and moral dilemmas as they strive to free their friend from bondage.
