Summary "Dulcie Carlyon: A Novel. Volume 3 (of 3)" by James Grant is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around Florian MacIan, a soldier in Zululand, and Dulcie Carlyon, who is enduring trials back home related to her social standing and the unwanted advances from a relative named Shafto. As the narrative unfolds, Florian grapples with vengeance for his wounded friend while contemplating his feelings for Dulcie, who faces her own struggles with isolation and familial pressure. At the start of this volume, the scene is set amidst a fierce pursuit in a violent landscape. Florian is consumed by rage and grief following the assassination of his comrade, Vivian Hammersley, as he chases after the criminals responsible. His pursuit is described vividly, with elements of the natural surroundings enhancing the tension. Meanwhile, the subsequent chapters shift focus to Dulcie's life at Craigengowan, where she is treated poorly by Lady Fettercairn and becomes increasingly resolved to escape her oppressive environment. The tension builds as she contemplates her future amidst her growing love for Florian and the threat posed by Shafto, culminating in her determination to leave, setting the stage for a deeper exploration of her character and the implications of her decisions.
