| Summary | "The Yellow Flag: A Novel. Volume 2 (of 3)" by Edmund Yates is a fictional work written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around a complex web of relationships involving the deceased John Calverley, who lived a double life as Mr. Claxton, his mistress Alice, and his wife Mrs. Calverley. As the characters navigate the fallout from his death, themes of betrayal, societal judgment, and moral dilemmas surface, centering on the struggles of those left behind. The beginning of this volume initiates a tense atmosphere as Doctor Haughton and Mr. Broadbent must deliver the devastating news of Mr. Calverley's death to his unsuspecting wife, Mrs. Calverley. The shocking revelations about Mr. Calverley's double life unfold, particularly concerning his relationship with a younger woman named Alice, who remains blissfully unaware of his fraud. As the story progresses, additional layers of complexity emerge, particularly surrounding the consequences of unearthing Calverley's secrets and the societal implications for Alice and Mrs. Calverley, thus setting the stage for confounding moral challenges and emotional strife.
