520 _a"The Holladay Case: A Tale" by Burton Egbert Stevenson is a mystery novel written in the early 20th century. This story centers around the shocking murder of Hiram W. Holladay, a wealthy Wall Street magnate, and the ensuing investigation into the circumstances surrounding his death. The primary focus is on his daughter, Frances Holladay, who stands accused of the crime, and the complexities that unfold as attorney Mr. Royce takes on her defense. The opening of the novel sets a tense and dramatic scene as characters grapple with the implications of the headline news regarding Frances's alleged crime. Mr. Royce and his colleagues are introduced, highlighting their mixed emotions regarding the case. The narrative quickly draws readers into the investigation, revealing that Frances was reportedly in her father’s office shortly before his death but offering no clear alibi for her whereabouts. As tensions mount and evidence seems to be stacked against her, the stage is set for a deeper exploration of family secrets, the nature of guilt, and the search for truth alongside compelling courtroom dynamics as Mr. Royce seeks to uncover the real story and clear Frances of the charges.
