Google Books (Oxford University)  a"The Chase of the Ruby" by Richard Marsh is a novel written in the late 19th century. The narrative revolves around Guy Holland, who is thrust into a peculiar situation following the death of his uncle, George Burton. With a will that hinges on the retrieval of a ruby signet ring from an actress named May Bewicke, Guy must navigate a web of intrigue, personal relationships, and unexpected complications.  At the start of the tale, Guy Holland receives an unexpected letter notifying him of his uncle's death, leading him back to London from Africa and unraveling a haunting vision he believes was linked to his uncle's demise. As he meets with Letty, his betrothed, he confesses to a strange connection with his uncle's fate. The narrative quickly evolves with Guy learning that his inheritance is contingent on reclaiming a ring from an old flame, Miss Bewicke, which sparks tension between him and his fiancé. The opening sets the stage for a gripping chase through personal rivalries, unfulfilled romances, and moral dilemmas that challenge Guy's character as he embarks on a quest that may ultimately put him at odds with his own values.
