The Yellow Crayon

"The Yellow Crayon" by E. Phillips Oppenheim is a story set in the early 1900s about a man named Mr. Sabin, whose wife, the Duchess of Souspennier, has vanished without a trace. Overwhelmed with worry, Mr. Sabin begins a pursuit to find her, revealing a story filled with love, lies, and a pursuit of what's right. On a peaceful summer day, we find Mr. Sabin in deep thought about his missing wife, whose disappearance prompts him to ask Duson, his servant, to get ready for a trip to New York, determined to find her. Before their departure, a quick message to Felix hints at something bigger at stake, and the story teases the personal struggles as well as some interesting mysteries that await.
