520 _a"Rodney Stone" by Arthur Conan Doyle is a Gothic mystery and boxing novel published in 1896. The story follows Rodney, a Sussex country boy dreaming of the sea, who is taken to London by his fashionable uncle Sir Charles Tregellis. There he enters a world of Regency high society, bare-knuckle boxing champions, and dark secrets surrounding his friend Boy Jim's mysterious parentage. Set against the backdrop of late eighteenth-century England, the novel weaves together coming-of-age adventure with the brutal sport of prizefighting and encounters with historical figures like Lord Nelson and Beau Brummell.
