Excerpt
The summer night was perfectly still; not a breath of air was stirring in the pine-branches, and the silence was absolute; but it was broken suddenly—suddenly and terribly. From the castle on the height there came the sound of a shot—the short, sharp crack of a pistol-shot — and the instant afterwards, a window high up in one of the turrets was thrown open, a light shone out, and a woman’s agonized cry pierced far into the dead silence of the night.
