| Summary | "The Silent Alarm" by Roy J. Snell is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story follows a strong and resourceful young girl named Florence Huyler, who finds herself a prisoner in a cabin in the mountains of Kentucky. Despite her precarious situation, Florence is determined to escape and complete her mission to secure coal land for a school. The narrative is set against a backdrop of friendship, danger, and the challenges of persevereing through a society steeped in poverty and tradition. The opening of the novel sets the stage for Florence's unexpected captivity as she reflects on her uncertain fate. The story starts with her solitary existence in a lonely cabin guarded by mysterious men, while outside, her friend Marion signals to her from a distance using a makeshift system they've established. As the story unfolds, Florence contemplates her situation, the purpose of her captors, and her hopes of contacting Marion to relay important information about the land. Amidst the tension and fear, the themes of bravery, loyalty, and determination emerge, promising a gripping tale of adventure and courage. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
